If you are flea infested... there truely is NOTHING else but to flea bomb. I would not let this be your first plan of attach though as it is a lot of poisons YUCK!

FIRST try diatamaceous earth FOOD GRADE ... MUST MUST MUST be food grade. It is a holistic WONDERFUL pesticide/dewormer. I could get some for you if you want to try it/can't find it around you. Just PM me for more information. I love this stuff.

Did you leave the Dawn wash on for a while? Any thick shampoo works (the SPA collection works great Minksheen/CloudNine Buddy Shampoo FULL Strength works too) Soap them up like normal and leave it on for minimum of 3 mins. This is to drown the fleas.

Flea protection (the topical kind) must be put on 3 days AFTER/BEFORE a bath!!!! Comfortis is a tablet you can get at your vet that lasts the actual 30days. It is WONDERFUL! Being in Florida I have tried all the flea topical ones and a few tablets.

I hope I could help. These little buggers DRIVE ME NUTS!!!
