Creepy Things

I am scared to death that there is something living in my ears!  Don't laugh!  For the past couple weeks, I keep hearing/feeling something moving around in there.  I can't even describe it.  Ewww, honestly, do I even want to know if there is something living in there?  On a related note:  There is totally something living in the ceiling above my bed.  It's creeping me out.  How do I find out what the heck it is?  What if I lift a ceiling tile and raccoon or a squirrel jumps on my face?!  Any advice would be appreciated.  I'm sure the pest control we hired won't actually do anything.  They would probably tell me to try to negotiate with the critter.  Ugh.
