Question

little black bugs attacking my ankles..I recently got a kitten and she had fleas, i de-flead her several times but i have these little black bugs around my house..when i go into any of my rooms in the house i end up with like 5 of them attacking my ankles, what can they be, they are tiny..

Answer 1

you have fleas in your house! get powder for killing fleas in carpet and follow the directions, walmart and petco have all sorts of de-flea stuff, good luck!

Answer 2

Probably fleas.  They can live in the carpet, even after your cat gets a flea treatment.  So, your cat probably has them again.  You'll need to re-treat your cat and treat the house for fleas.

Answer 3

Sounds like you didn't get rid of all the fleas. Call your vet and ask for a spray that will help you. :)

Answer 4

They are fleas.

Ok, first off, pick a day when your free, the weekend is good. Then take your cats into your car, and de flea them with the medicine. Then get flea bombs and set them up to go off. Flea bomb every room in your house, and take your kitten for a little ride in the car, with a bowl with litter.

Answer 5

had exactly the same problem, what u need to do is get some flea powder and apply on ur kitten, also get some products for the carpet, i even sprayed the carpet with Raid (insecticide i had at home), and u have to vaccum the whole house everyday and throw out the vaccum bag immediatly, coz theyre small enough to jump out of them, within few days they were vanished, trust me if u dont throw out the vaccum bag then u would start from zero and they will never go away

Answer 6

Still have fleas. It takes a while for that stuff to work.

Just remember to be careful with that stuff it's like poison

Answer 7

You might have gotten rid of the fleas on the cat but not in house I don't know how to get rid them but I know there fleas sorry:(

Answer 8

Fleas, fleas, and more fleas....

Answer 9

they are definitely fleas. I de-flea all my pets using frontline and spray the carpets with Raid flea spray. I still get bitten.
