Fleas

[Bloo]

Yes, they can live in the carpet, but without also living on the animals, they cannot survive as they need a host.

I thought it would have been easy to see them on a white coat?.

Fleas are really easy to see in a white coat cos they're quite big!!

We use a spray from our vet (think its frontline) we did have the drops but they didn't work at all and they spray has been great - not seen a single flea on any of our 5 cats or 3 dogs since we've been using it - just dont get it on your hands cos it stinks!!

Oh, and feed them garlic - fleas hate garlic

Get Frontline it's great stuff ,a few drops on the back of the cats neck and Fleas are gone.I had four cats and one always had a lot of fleas on her.used Frontline and didn't see a flea after six weeks.Four years later and I dose the girl i have left once a year ,and havn't seen any fleas for all that time.SUPER STUFF!!!!!.

I dont give my cats garlic but we sometimes give the dogs garlic tablets or the supplements you can get. Im pretty sure it wouldn't harm your cats as its really good for animals (my horse has garlic powder in his food too!) but check first just incase

We got some drops from the vet £18 for 4 little tiny tubes, as i have said we have used room spray and shampoo on the cats, Im putin flea powder down later havent seen no fleas 4 2 days but as i say none on the cats wierd if u ask me i just want get rid of them as every time i think of them i itch like mad -shudders-.
