    I actually found this non-expensive flea trap - works really well - and doesn't have any chemicals or anything. Cleared every room I put it in. I don't have the link, but its called - myfleatrap. Has been tested by universities and stuff. Should try it out.

    I gave my new kitten 1/4 less advantage becuase I was concerned as I didnt know if she would have a reaction and I had an experience once in the past with my cat of ten years where I almost lost her so I do get a bit leary at times. However, now my new 11week old kitten still has fleas and black specs on her, should I give her the remaining dose or a whole new dose?

    The article was very helpful, however my question is if there are clothes in a dresser in a room that was fogged can you put newly laundered clothes in the dresser, or do you have to wash All the clothes?

    actually having a cat is your best combat so the darn fleas will target the cat and put Advantage on him and when they bite the cat the fleas and eggs will die and they will stop biting you, make sure its a full grown cat though, or use borax you can buy in walmart in the laundry detergent isle buy a few box's of that sprinkle on your carpet and sweep it in the carpet and let it sit for 24 hours then vacuum the next day, but this will be much harder b/c the fleas will still be biting you since it doesnt have another target. but do this before it spreads to much where it goes into your furniture and your mattress. Agian this osunds crazy your best bet is getting a full grown cat that is indoor and let them bite the cat

    If you have carpet, sprinkle 20 Mule Team Borax all over, then walk on it to make it settle into the fibers and padding. Do this AFTER vacuuming (if you have a bag vacuum, sprinkle some in the bag, vacuum, then remove the bag and tie it tight in a trash bag and throw away outside). Avoid vacuuming for as long as you can, so the Borax can get rid of the fleas. If you have a small lamp you can set on the floor, you can place a clear dish on the floor filled with soapy water and shine the light on it before bed. Fleas are drawn to the heat of the light and when they jump toward it, they land in the soapy water and drown. Flush the water the next day. Shampoo hair with a drop of lavender oil added to it. That works great for repelling (and smells great). Place cedar chips under the beds and furniture (in small mesh bags so as not to make a mess) so it will repel. I guess the best
