Thanks for the recipe. I may have to give that a try.

We've been using a mix of distilled water, lemongrass oil and peppermint oil as a spray repellant. Have to use it every day, usually two times. But the yorks smell great and so far, no fleas.

We're also sprinkling the carpets with Borax once a week, leaving it for a couple of hours then vacuuming it up.

It's been a bad year for fleas/ticks around here. The only drawback to what we've been doing is that it's easy to forget to spray them, and I like to find someplace to go while the Borax is sitting.
