Unhappy Mites

hi! I recently bought my hamster a new type of sawdust (it was a lot more expensive than the old type, which i took to mean it was of better quality) ever since then i have had a problem with what i think are mites. they are small small white bugs that crawl all over the cage, the bookshelf the cage is on and all my books. i have never seen them before and i have lived here for 10 years. is it possible they came from the sawdust? the company says they didnt when i phoned up to complain, but i dont know where else they could have come from. i havent changed anything else in my room other than the sawdust.
HELP i cannot kill these mites i have used pet safe insectacide, flea spray (with hamster out of the room), disinfectant wipes, spray, all kinds of things. i had to throw out so many of my hamster's toys i just got his bar biting under control too
