  1. i say go around with something  hairy tht the fleas would jump on with a sticky base so they cant jump off

    like they sell this fly paper with shag carpet on top to catch fleas and to trick animals like rats

    i think you would find it in a petsmart or sumething

    u could try making one urself if u cant find one


  2. You’re going to need to treat any carpet or bedding that your pet uses or comes in contact with. Wash all bedding in hot water, or destroy any that seems beyond help.

    Vacuuming alone will get rid of many of the eggs, larva, and pupa that are hidden in your carpet. Vacuuming also stirs up the pile of the carpet, allowing insecticides to penetrate more deeply. After you’ve thoroughly vacuumed all effected areas, seal the vacuum cleaner bag, and dispose of it outside. Once fleas have established themselves in your home, you will probably need to use an insecticide to completely control them. The most effective products combine an adulticide like permethrin, with a growth regulator, such as methoprene or pyriproxyfen, which controls the egg, larva, and pupa stage. As a general rule, sprays that can be directed onto the carpet by hand are more effective than the “flea bombs” that you set off in the center of a room. Hand held sprays can be used on all likely areas of flea infestation, and under beds, behind couches, furniture, etc. You will probably continue to see evidence of fleas for two weeks or longer after treating your home, but don’t despair. Continue to vacuum on a regular basis, as this will stimulate pre-adult fleas to leave their cocoons. Also, be sure to continue to treat your cat, to ensure it is not re-infested.

    For your flea bites, you can eat garlic, they say it repells fleas. Garlic is a good repellent for humans and dogs, but avoid giving it to cats it can be toxic for them!


  3. call your Vet, they have lots of stuff to use...you need to spray your home too..to get rid of these fleas.

  4. a flea collar

    Hydrocortizon for the bites
