Fleas AFTER treatment

(Not so dear at the moment)Cat went missing for a long time. When he came home I took him to the vets to be looked over and to be treated for fleas just in case. Since then, and not before, my sofa at least seems to be infested with fleas. I am going to hoover and spray it tomorrow but I just don't understand it, the vet didn't give me the name of the treatment but she said she used something strong on him as I said I was concerned about ticks aswell.

I was so pleased he was home, happy and in surprisingly good condition but the shine is being taken off his happy return with itchy flea bites up and down my calves Angry

Maybe the flea eggs were there already but the cat has triggered them to hatch by returning to you. Indorex spray is supposed to be good for treating the house/furnishings

The fleas jump off the cat once he's treated, because the cat is now poison to them.
