about 5 months ago, kitty and I moved to a new apartment that had just had carpet replaced and a fresh coat of paint. I immediately began getting bitten by little critters, and wasn't really sure what to do. 2 months ago, I visited my mom for a few weeks, and I was recently talking to her, and she informed me that I brought fleas into her home, she found them on her cat.
So that's what all those bites were!
Now how do I get rid of this problem? Here's what mom and the vet have suggested so far:
Get prescription stuff from the Vet. The vet gave me frontline.
Vacuum real well (I do have a heavy piece that is pretty tough to move though)
Put bedding in the dryer, wash all clothes.
Don't use over the counter meds or flea collars, they are harmful to kitty. but put flea collar in vacuum bag
What about bombing? It sounds really harsh?
Also I can give kitty baths too. She is good about it, but you have to do it quickly!
What else should I do? Any other suggestions?
