How do you get rid of fleas tat may be living inside your couch?

Question

i have no pets at all. the couch was given to me by a friend who had a dog and it has fleas on it. im not sure how many but i know fleas multiply rapidly so im guessing there's alot. i cant really see them because the couch is black so they are automatically camouflaged. the couch is a cloth type couch. i suppose i can just wash the cloths that cover the seats of the couch, but what about the rest of the couch?

Answer 1

bye a whole room fogger for fleas and set it off sometime when you are gone all day, you might want to do the whole house cus fleas spread pretty quickly...the foggers work great!

Answer 2

Well, since you don't have a pet, that's good. Fleas use the pet for food and lay eggs there. The eggs would fall on where the pet would usually sleep.

Since its summer and probably getting humid. The fleas are starting to act up. Higher metabolism-- though shorter life, they'll die off eventually since they don't have a proper food source (people aren't hairy enough for fleas. They easily dry out in direct sunlight)
