My elderly lab has fleas, not sure how as treated regularly and never had a problem before (she’s 16).

Have started the whole hoover/spray(Indorex)/wash everything routine, dog treated with Bravecto and have a pest controller coming in tomorrow to spray the house properly. However the vet said today that I shouldn’t let my 8mth old baby down on the floor for the next 3mths, nor have visitors.

So now I’m looking into renting a holiday home for the summer as I literally can’t keep hold of the baby for the next 3mths. Is this really necessary?!

We routinely use Ardap spray which is safe once dry in public areas and food prep areas. Its £15 for 750ml from Amazon. Made in Germany and very efficient against any and all bugs/fleas/spiders/caterpillars etc. It is use by veterinary practices, restaurants, livery yards, kennels etc. Its absolutely not a "move out for x months" job, just a "let it dry" job. Lasts for 6 weeks on treated areas.
