Re: fleas!!!!!!!!!!!!! help!!!!

Personally cos I'm paranoid over fleas I'd have to pay double lol and I wouldn't buy any flea treatment for the cats other than stronghold or advocate and you will have to do all 3! Millie must have brought them in I'm guessing if non go out x

Re: fleas!!!!!!!!!!!!! help!!!!

An effective product (many aren't) such as Indorex, Acclaim, RIP Fleas etc will kill any fleas, eggs and larvae within the house if used as directed so no need for a fumigator just yet . Follow the instructions and do not use directly on the cats.

Personally I would treat today but to be honest you've probably had them a while and not noticed so as long as it is just a few and not a full on infestation then there should be no harm waiting a day. Do you have a flea comb? The first thing I'd do is to give them all a thorough combining over and remove any that are on the cats (drown them in water with washing up liquid added in). Have you treated the cats with a spot on?

i found 2 or 3 on kobi and using a nit comb (dont laugh) lol and ive now treated them all with spot on, ive ordered the indorex now, i dont think they have had them long as wih kobi being white i think id of noticed sooner plus none of them have flea dirt so leads me to believe its not been long
