Fleas

are a real problem! In the last 17 years we have not had an issue with fleas in any of the places we have lived or with any of our animals (including the place we have lived in for the last 4 years). We now have a flea problem with the dogs and cats. Me = not happy Jan!!! We have bathed the animals in flea shampoo (not the cats though - I like my skin on my body thank you!), used the spot on stuff, used flea powder and they still scratch *sigh*. We have sprayed the lounges and the carpet in the kids rooms.....will need either flea bombs (which require the turning off of all electrical equipment and the evacuation of the premises) or will need to try spraying outside the house, under the house and anywhere the dogs and cats sleep. Good luck with that! Why does such a tiny thing have to be such a humungous pain!!!! Anyone know of a non-chemical solution we can try?
