I work in a very dingy office attached to a warehouse. My boss brought in her puppy today. She made CERTAIN we all hugged and petted him. He laid on the floor for about an hour, and around my feet. We have a "short thread" carpet here. A couple mins later my boss was holding him and scratching him. I petted his head and noticed fleas crawling on his belly. I pointed them out and she said she knew he had them. Long story short I got very angry with her. I have two pets, one that has suffered from fleas before,the last thing I need is a flea infestation in my home! I upset her but she agreed to take the dog home. The dog was locked in her office for about another half hour. Here a total of about 2 hours. At lunch I went out and purchased some Backwoods Cutter bug repellent, specifically mentioned fleas. I sprayed the bottoms of my jeans, my shirt and around my desk. It is only 8 hour repellent. How at risk do you think I am for getting fleas? Is there anything else I can do?
