Thank you so much everyone! I went ahead and bit the bullet bathed both babies with Dawn dish soap (yes, even Tatum ) then afterwards I bathed them each with Minksheen as it is an Natural Insect Repellant with Citronella, Eucalyptus and Cedar Oils that protect from biting insects. No idea if that means fleas or not, but I did read online that fleas do not like Eucalyptus and Cedar Oil - so hopefully it will help some and anyway it's better than nothing! Tatum only had two fleas on her (I hope they weren't male and female - LOL!!) - I scrubbed her like there was no tomorrow! Stedman didn't have a single flea on him - not a one Poor Tatum, if there is anything at all to "get", she gets it She is always my baby that gets everything! Ugh. This just confirms to me even more than she DID get them from one of the gas stations we stopped at to let her go potty when we took her for more x-rays on Monday. I KNOW that is where she got them. We do not have any flea problems what-so-ever in our yard. I have 4 babies and none of them EVER have any fleas on them, not even during the summer months when fleas can actually be really quite awful in our area where we live. Anyway, I still went ahead and washed every single "doggie item" in this house, lol. All beds, blankets, etc. have been washed in HOT water I told Steddy and Tate tonight that mommy and daddy are gonna kick those fleas butts and tell 'em were to go! LOL. Ugh! I HATE those things! I hate even seeing them! YUCK!!!!

Thank you everyone for all of your help and Nikki, if I do happen to see anymore fleas (I pray to God that I DON'T) - but if I do, I will most definitely be getting those pills! Thank you so much for the recommendation girl! And thank you to every other person who posted in this thread for their help as well! I know it was on two tiny little fleas, but that is BY FAR enough for me! I don't even want to see ONE on my babies! Yuck!!

Thanks again guys!
