I had another battle this afternoon with my parents about it so hopefully something will come of it this time.  |
Good luck, it's hard enough to get rid of them when you have total control, but when your parents are fighting you, that would be difficult. I have read that putting moth balls in the vacuum bag kills the fleas and/or eggs, and you can buy some moth balls that have a lavender scent and don't smell that bad. I hope you vet has some ideas, that's got to be pretty hard on Duke.
