have got many pet threads about my new flea infested cats
i happened to mention to my next door neighbour today i have 2 new cats and they both as well as my other one all have fleas.
i told her my ds has been bitten everywhere and i have now been bitten twice
a while later she called me into the garden and told me that her daughter has an anaphylactic shock from a flea bite and was rushed to a&e and nearly died.
she said she's concerned about me ds being bitten so much and my house being infested and i had to tell her everything im doing to try and rid the house of the fleas.
i AM doing everything possible. im hoovering lots - which she said i shouldn't do cos it makes the egs hatch, but i said well if the eggs are hatching then i need to hoover again to get the hatched fleas.
she also kept going on about takin the cats to the vets which im doing tomorrow as it was the earliest i could get an appointment
im now worried about my ds developing an alergy. is this possible? he as spots everywhere - at least prob 40 odd.
have i done the wrong thing getting these other 2 cats? cos now im starting to think i have. i defo would of reconsidered if i knew they were covered in fleas. but now i have them i dont want them to go. i just wish their fleas would!!
please help im at my wits end with the fleas!!!
could ds suddenly react?
