    flea sprays / powders – treat the cause – they pet with pet sprays, combs etc. my friend had to get a professional to spray the entire house and clean all of the carpets but we couldn’t go into the house for 5 hours after!

    You don’t say what kind of animals you have, or how old. But in adult animals, the very best way to eradicate fleas is a product called Revolution, that is obtained from your vet.
    It’s a small packet of liquid that is applied to the back of an animal’s neck, and within 24 hours all fleas on that animal are dead and gone—no fleas, no flea bites!
    Also, wash your pet’s bedding and thoroughly vacuum your home. Apply the Revolution once a month, and your flea problem will be history.

    To get rid of and prevent them, go to your pets vet and they should give you some flea medication to help keep the fleas off, you will have to apply it though.

    I have cats and treat them all once a month with Frontline Plus which is available from your vet. It is easy to use and involves squeezing a pipette onto the back of your cat’s neck. Simple!

    Advantage is also a good flea eliminator.

    Your vet will also recommend a household spray.

    Once you start the regime of Frontline Plus, there shouldn’t be any need to respray your house as the Frontline stops fleas from breeding.

    Fleas are horrible things and spread worms so visit your vet and you will be free in no time. Don’t buy over the counter remedies as they very often don’t work and can contain chemicals which can be harmful.

    Good Luck! Hope that helps.

    1. Treat the cat. Go to your vet and get either Advantage or Frontline Plus (I went with Advantage).

    2. Get yourself a “flea comb” and comb your cat at least once per day. Have a bucket with dish soap in it handy to dunk the comb in and to collect the hair. Fleas can’t jump out of the slippery soap. No point in combing them out only to have them jump back on your cat. Flush this down the toilet, pour it down the sink, or dispose of it away from your house.

    3. Treat your house. Options are a borate powder product or something that uses diatomaceous earth. Fleabusters (BP), Fleago Natural Flea Control (BP) or Flea Away Natural Flea Powder (DE). Put about a tablespoon of this in your vacuum cleaner bag (or you can cut up a flea collar to put in there. Just follow the directions which will vary by product, but in general you’ll sprinkle on the carpet and vacuum up and also sprinkle into cracks and crevices. (I chose Fleago because it’s less expensive than Fleabusters. I may also try Flea Away in time).

    4. Vacuum as often as possible. Before vacuuming, stomp around the house. This will bring the fleas to life because they’ll think there’s a tasty morsel out there. Then vacuum those little bastards up. Be sure to use your attachments to vacuum as many cracks and crevices as you can – they love to hide out there.

    5. Wash any pet bedding in hot water, and you’ll want to be particularly diligent about vacuuming/treating areas where your cat hangs out.

    6. Treat your yard. Even if your cat doesn’t go outside, fleas may enter your home if they exist in your yard. There’s a small chance that you or others may bring fleas in the house with you (although this is unlikely). Get hold of some nematodes to spray in your yard. I believe you only have to do this once per year. These little creatures will eat the flea larva. As one website put it, these critters are too small to hug, but they deserve it! (I had to order this online; I wasn’t able to find a place that sells them in my area and didn’t feel like calling every place in the phonebook).

    Things not to do: Don’t use any essential oils on your cat, particularly anything with pennyroyal or eucalyptus. They’re toxic to cats. Don’t use flea collars. Don’t give your cat any garlic/yeast formulations. Don’t give your cat lemon baths.

    You’re going to want to continue treating your home as directed, whether that be sprinkling once per week or once a month. Continue treating throughout flea season (when it’s warm). You can stop during the winter months, but start up again in the spring. You’ll nip them in the bud!

    The key is to treat the environment, not the cat. If you do that, you may never have to apply another flea product directly on them again.

    Depending upon the age of your pet, you will need to get flea medication from your vet, I use Frontline.

    You will also need to treat your house to remove the fleas and their eggs that are already there.

    Your vet also has a liquid that you can spray on the furniture, rugs, etc and still remain in your home.

    Just do one room at a time, all in the same day, though.

    This problem can be easily resolved. Best to you..

  9. gracie said :

    Use a FRONTLINE brand, it takes one dose one a month for about three months.

  10. Kerry said :

    Frontline is the best product to get rid of fleas on your cat ,it’s recommended by vets . Flea bombs are good to use for each room,i used 2 a couple of weeks ago,they will completely fumagate each room much better than using sprays.

  11. keepfit70 said :

    Go to either your Vet’s or a Chemist (Boots) and buy a tin of ACCLAIM. you spray all round the house, on pet bedding, any chair that the animal has been on, and round the skirting boards. This will last for 4 months, and will kill all fleas, and other crawlies. DO NOT SPRAY IT ONTO YOUR PET.

  12. JoeyBug said :

    Use Frontline (avalable for the vets) for your pet and your home and ask you pharmacist about a cream for flea bites.

    Hope this helps.

  13. pgt said :

    The core of your writing while sounding agreeable at first, did not really settle very well with me after some time. Someplace throughout the sentences you actually were able to make me a believer but only for a very short while. I still have got a problem with your leaps in assumptions and one would do well to fill in all those gaps. When you can accomplish that, I could definitely be amazed.

    One thing I’d prefer to say is the fact that car insurance termination is a horrible experience so if you’re doing the proper things like a driver you may not get one. Some people do are sent the notice that they are officially dropped by the insurance company they have to struggle to get further insurance following a cancellation. Cheap auto insurance rates are usually hard to get from cancellation. Understanding the main reasons regarding auto insurance cancellation can help drivers prevent getting rid of in one of the most critical privileges out there. Thanks for the concepts shared by means of your blog.

  29. Hyacinth Landreneau said :

    I have seen that car insurance firms know the autos which are vulnerable to accidents as well as other risks. Additionally they know what types of cars are prone to higher risk and the higher risk they have got the higher a premium amount. Understanding the basic basics associated with car insurance will let you choose the right kind of insurance policy that can take care of your family needs in case you become involved in an accident. Thank you sharing the ideas for your blog.
