if the fleas are so bad that they are bothering you too then you have a serious flea infestation. You might need to have your house bombed and the yard treated as well. If its not that bad then what you need to do is get a Capstar from your vet and give it to your dog. It will start killing fleas on the dog within 30 minutes. You also need to make an appointment with a groomer and tell them she has fleas. Ask them if they use non-pesticidal shampoo because you don't want more chemicals dumped on her. While she is at the groomer you need to do some serious cleaning. Wash everything that can be put in the washing machine. This includes sheets, blankets, dog beds, pillows, towels, area rugs, etc... anything that can fit in the washer. Anything that can't fit in the washer needs to be thoroughly vacuumed (carpets, couches, chairs, beds, etc...) The suction and rotating head of the vacuum will kill the fleas. You need to make sure you clean and wash everything that fleas can hide in.
Fleas can be a pain to get rid of. good luck
