FLEAS? - Pet Pad

CubLub63 · 10-21-2009, 04:00 PM

How do I get rid of them? I already bought my kitty some Revolution, but I want to know how to get them out of the house!

Flea bombs. Also wash all kittys bedding.

Years ago we used advantage on the dog and within 24 hours all the fleas in the house were dead.

Right by the pet meds in the pet section in stores there will probably be a spray that you can use on furniture and stuff. I had to use that because using a flea bomb wasn't an option for me since I had nowhere else to stay in the mean time.

I agree I would avoid bombs (bad for you and the pet)

I have used the raid flea spray and it works like a champ. Spray it on the furniture, floors, pet beds, etc and make sure that you leave the windows open because it stinks to high heaven but it kills them on contact. I have also found the flea spray that you buy at the vet to work better than the pills but that's just me. The vet also sells a pill you can give to jump start that kills all the fleas on the animal with 2 hours so if you get the ones in your house and use that pill at once, then you should be okay to start with regular flea protection.

I already treated kitty with the medicine, I just need to get to washing sheets and buy that spray. Have to wait for pay day. Blah.

We just had an infestation and it was horrible like we put our feet on the floor and literally would have twenty flees on us. After spending tons of money on flee bombs and other things, We got advantage for our cats and now we don't have any flees anywhere.

Advantage huh? They gave me Revolution for my cat when I went to the vet. I wonder if I can take it back and say it's not working or something.
