flea problems please help!?
our cat brought flea's into the house and now we cant get them out. the only thing is the adult fleas are not the problem, its the baby fleas. when you walk into certain rooms in a matter off seconds you will have baby flees crawling up your legs. we have tried taking the cat out of the house for a day and setting off bug bombs, vacuuming/scrubbing, and other idea's from the internet. nothing has worked. help? (on a small budget) thanks

It takes several weeks of vacuuming everyday and spraying every few days to get them all. The babies that jump on you have literally just hatched out of their protective cocoon. They sensed your presence and hatched out to bite you. So the vacuuming and activity in the room will cause them to hatch and be exposed to the spray residue. That is what you want to happen. Vacuum right before and then an hour or two after you spray or bomb.
Spray Off on your ankles and legs to keep them off of you.
You need to treat the cat with Frontline Plus or Advantage drops. Every month from now on.
Make sure you get flea drop on cat.
Next plan on vacuuming every day for at least 3 weeks, the life cycle of the flea.
Nothing works other than vacuuming every day.
