I am really hoping someone can help, we have had fleas for about 8 weeks. We have a cat and a dog (both less than a year) in that 8 weeks we have used beaphar on the dog, three treatments, and the cat beaphar on the cat, both have had baths (the cat was a nightmare) and had treatment that way. We have put new flea collars on them both. And have been combing them every night.
All bedding that is able to be taken off has been washed on a high temp. I have been hoovering daily. We have also used the shake and vac flea stuff. Also on a weekly basis the carpet cleaner gets pulled out and the whole house, plus sofas and things that can't be washed are done. (I have put a chopped up flea collar in the hoover, as that was reccommended)
Now I am getting desperate so have also moved on to natural remedies, such as cider vinegar in the drinking ball and I have even gone and covered both pets in orange rind, as I read that would help (It didn't) sofas have also been salted.
The bloody fleas are still here, and they aim for me everytime. So my legs and arms are bitten badly, the dog is very effected the cat doesn't seem to have as many, in fact when I combed him last night, I pulled maybe a few eggs but that was it, My poor dog however looked like he had had a new breakout of them.
Can anyone please suggest something before I shave the pets (and probably me) and set fire to my house
