Each night Place the pie pans in each room where you have fleas Fill 1/2 with water Add 2 drops of the dish soap
Step2
Place the goose neck light over the pie pan as close to the water with out touching it.
Step3
Turn off all lights except for the ones over the water pans. The fleas draw to the light and jump in the water, the dish soap makes the water slippery and they can't jump out. You will find it full of dead fleas (looks like some poured pepper into the water). Discard and set out again the next night.
Tips & Warnings
Depending on how bad your fleas are, you will want to do for at least 4 night.
Must have only the light above the pan on to get the most fleas, other light left on will not attract to the water.

This will work great on live fleas, but flea eggs in the shell can hang around for months before hatching. NEVER use bombs on fleas, they have little residual effect and fleas are smart enough to go and hide from the "icky stuff" in the air.
Unfortunately, if you cannot walk across the room or sit down on furniture without having fleas on you right away, you are at the stage where you're going to need a professional.
