Getting rid of fleas?

Sprinkle borax all over your carpets before bed then vacuum it up in the morning do that every other night for a month you can also use damatious earth

 

My cats got fleas last summer. I used Frontline for 3 months and vacuumed often. I put a flea collar in the vacuum bag to kill the fleas that got sucked up. The fleas were eradicated after several weeks. It's not a quick solution, unless you want to bomb your house...which you don't !

If your dogs go outdoors, you might need to also treat your yard with a pesticide.

 

I used Advantix last year and had no problems. Were you using this prior to the infestation or after? If after I better look into another product.

 

vacuming daily and dog baths along with capstar{( 5$ at any vet) kills all flees on dog in 15 min} and a good preventitive like frontline have worked for me in the past,

 

My Dog got Fleas back in the day I had Freshwater and the only way I was able to get rid of them was bomb the house. I wrapped each tank in cling wrap and turned off all pumps and anything leading into tank was covered. I did all the step above and it just didn't do it. Bomb got the job done. It can be done with care. I might add that this was in our basement only and only our area rug was down there. I burned every rug down there and my dogs kennel too. /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default/emoticons/smile.gif Killing the fleas are simple, killing the eggs is another story.
