Four cats and fleas

Hello,
I found fleas on one of my cats yesterday. Have treated all of them with prescription Stronghold Plus. Does anyone have tips or tricks or recommendations to get rid of these fleas quickly?

I've got 3 cats I'm looking for homes for & one of them who's moving on from me nxt wk, has now got fleasConfused. I thought he was de-flead at his first vet appointment 🤷‍♀️ Got flea treatment from vet today and was told to hoover thoroughly and wash bedding - joy of joys! My cats never get fleas, so am hoping this'll do the trick.

@Want2beme do you foster? My cats never used to get fleas but one of them did get them this time and in a way it’s not surprising because I foster and there are always cats and guinea pigs coming and going. They are in a foster room but I guess once one of them gets it, it just spreads through carpet, blankets, etc. Today I’ve spent the day vacuuming everything: carpets, mattresses on both sides, curtains, cat beds, cat boxes, sofas. I then boil washed whatever can be washed, even the cushions from the cat tree. I’ve also sprayed liberally with RIP Flea spray which the vet gave me. Fingers crossed this will do the trick!
