:sick:
My cat's got fleas. He's been deflea'd now, but I keep finding them jumping about :sick: They make me feel all dirty and itchy :(

What's the best thing to do? I'm going away tomorrow so should I spray dow the house before I go? I'm worried the spray will make LO ill...
 
What flea treatment do you use on your cat?

Do not whatever you do spray your house when LO is around.

I hate fleas and I react really badly to them and end up with huge itchy and painful boils. I haven't had them your years but the only way to go to get rid of the little buggers is full force. Spray every single nook and cranny and treat your cat again.

The only ones from pets shops that work are the Johnson's range. Nothing else they sell works. If you can't find them in your pet shop then only buy the stuff from your vets. The sprays work a lot quicker (almost instantly) than the topical spot on/advocate liquids.

Here's a photo of the Johnson's range. The small but one is for dogs so you will need the cat one. The tall pink one is for the house, and buy as many as you can afford and plaster everything in it!! But keep LO away from traeted rooms for 24hrs and wash any soft furnishings she comes into contact with 24hrs after treating them. You may need to treat again in 2 weeks when the eggs are hatching to kill the young fleas before they get chance to breed. If you leave it too long after then, the hatching fleas with lay eggs and then 2 weeks later be hatching again and you will end up with an infestation.

Borax (soap) and Salt is a good solution for carpets. Also for behind furniture and such. It's non-toxic. The salt kills the adults and the borax kills the eggs.
