We had a problem here a few years ago in Ohio with them. The vet told me it was because it was so wet that summer. We had a lot of rain and it was warm. The perfect environment for fleas to thrive in.

I had to vacuum, bathe, etc. Moved furniture and even vacuumed the couches. I also used some kind of spray that the vet gave me (can't remember the name). It seemed to take about a week for the major amount of them to be gone and about a month before I did not see any.

Good luck! I know they can be very annoying!
