I need help!!! Tomorrow will be 2 weeks that I have been trying to rid my baby (and now my home) of fleas. we tried the dish detergent and flea spray...still there then we tried Zodiac...nothing my vet told me to try Frontline a week later...still nothing we bombed yesterday and now they are in my car and I have seen two on the bottom of my pants I don't know what to do |
I had that problem. You need to spray outside, inside and get your furbaby treated at the same time. It's terrible to have to deal with. |
how long did it take to solve your problem? |
Vacuum, vacuum vacuum. I put some flea powder in the vacuum bag. I actually threw out the bag after a few vacuums ,and I vacuumed every hour or so. I had a severe case of fleas in my house about 14 years ago. I almost had a nervous breakdown. My mom had just passed away and we were living with my dad, my daughter was only 11 mo old, and I was picking them off of her. I totally freaked. Sprinkle moth ball flakes on the carpets and then vacuum it up. Also place a pan of water at night in a hall with a lamp on the floor, in the morning you will see the fleas in the water. The light attracts them and they drown in the water. We did the bombing thing. My husband actually went and put on gray sweatpants and literally vacuumed thousands off of his legs. Finally we were forced to call an exterminator and he bombed the whole place and sprayed outside. I hate the bombing because them you have to take everything off of the kitchen counters and I just felt like the poison in the bomb stuff was all over everything. Totally creeped me out. To this day when I see a poppy seed on the counter my heart just sinks. You really have to stay on top of them because each flea will produce many more. So like I started this post Vacuum, Vacuum, Vacuum. Good luck!!! |
A once a year treatment in your home and car with this product will do the trick: Natural food grade diatomaceous earth flea and tick treatment information. And more information: Increased Scrutiny of Flea and Tick Control Products for Pets | Pesticides | US EPA Here are a few ways to keep fleas off naturally: Chinaroad Lowchens of Australia - Ticks, fleas, bees, flies, snakes and other gremlins! And how to deal with them! Most dogs that eat mainly commercial pet foods and treats are more than likely to have a different odor to them that attracts fleas and ticks. A good healthy real food diet builds the immune system and combats these critters. |
I am gonna vacum again today I have a collar in the bag I will also put some of the carpet powder in there as well |
Have you treated outside yet? |
My 10n year old son just came in my room and told me he took a little black bug off of Pebbles :eek:. I just shaved them down yesterday. Ok I have to remain calm. They will get their dose of Frontline plus in the morning. I don't like to give it to them the same day I give them their heartworm meds. I usually wait 5 days after or so. Well they got their heartworm meds on the 1st so they will definatly get it tomorrow morning. Trying not to freak out. I asked him if it was round or like oval. He said oval. That sound like a flea to me. GREAT!!!!!!! |
