fleas !!
4 Answers
is it me or is it particulary bad this year we used to have 2 dogs and 3 cats we lost the dogs not so long ago so we are down to 3 cats only.
Despite all the regular flea protection & house sprays the problem seems 100 times worse year, i have emptied 2 tins of house spray with no great effect. (zodiac ,one of the so called better ones) our downstairs is all laminate & tiling and this seems the worse bit !!
Any sensible suggestions appreciated..

Our cat Milly is two years old & this is the first time she's had fleas! It has been driving her potty & even after treatment is taking so long to clear up.
I'm constantly washing the window sills from dead fleas & blood marks where she's been biting herself to bits, poor thing.
Our daughter's cats have been the same & now their dog!
I can only recommend Frontline Flea Drops on the back of the neck & hope for the best like us!
Good luck.

I'm so sorry to hear you lost your dogs, one of mine crossed the rainbow bridge 3 months ago. I've had dogs for longer than I care to remember and never seen a flea until 2 weeks ago when Meg had an infestation of little red things. The vet gave me (sold me) Prac-tic, it worked very quickly. Sprayed bedding, rugs, etc with Bob Martin flea spray. Not had a problem since.
Hi again chas - I've just phoned the vets again to ask how long it usually takes for cat fleas to disappear after using the Frontline flea drops - a long shot I know.
The lady told me that apart from using the drops, to wash her cat bed/blanket, then to spray everywhere with something called 'Indorex Household Spray'.
She also suggested using a flea comb to rid her of any nits, so I'm going to try that later!
Hope that helps.
P.S. I'm itching just thinking about it!
