It is a must to be rid of fleas. They hide everywhere. Baseboards, window coverings, carpet, dog bedding, etc. It you find one flea, then there are several hundreds.

Step 2
Is your dog scratching? Examine your pooch, spread his hair apart down to where you can see the skin. Also look on his belly, you usually will see some fleas there. Another tip off that there are fleas is if your dogs sleeps with you and you notice all this little bites. I have known people who have had white socks on in their home and could see the little pesky bugs jumping off and on their socks. But also remember you can bring fleas inside from your yard also.
