Well, the drying/bagging (make sure they're sealed, completely airtight!) is kind of a low-cost basic step, while starting to buy stuff like mattress covers and anti-BB traps gets more expensive. If you truly think the bug's appearance was an isolated event then maybe you'll want to take a wait-and-see approach before investing much more?
FWIW this is the mattress cover I got. Worked well enough. Looks like it's on sale atm.
The other major bed accessory, assuming your bed's on four legs and can be otherwise isolated, is interceptor traps. If you've got bedbugs these are important because they let you see if you still have bugs; at night you act as bait (they attracted to CO2), and the traps catch them as they try to crawl up bed legs.
I used this mattress cover
