Bed bugs

I live in a building with three apartments. I recently found bed bugs in mine arising from a sofa purchased from Craigslist. The exterminator found remnants of dead ones in the sofa. I’d like to know who is responsible for the extermination of the bed bug infestation — me or the landlord. According to my lease my apartment is suppose to be inhabitable and free of pests. Advise and please no snide comments.
