Answer 1

Have you had at lot of rain recently ? The best treatment for flees in the house is a product called Demond or Cynoff (depending on the manufacturer. Treat a crack and crevasse spray every 10 days for 30 days then "lay-off" and see what happens. Flees keep me in business because they are so hard to "kill". If you've had a lot of rain recently they may have moved in to avoid drowning. Another help is to replace the bag on your vacuum cleaner every time you vaccum so the eggs you vaccum up do not "hatch and escape."

Answer 2

you might be infested and need to hire a pro. First , vacuum and vacuum again. Make sure you empty your vacuum outside directly into a plastic bag. If you can leave your vacuum out of your home till after the next step, that is a good thing. Now, go to the local hardware store (Home Depot, etc.) and buy some liquid insect spray in a large gallon container with a spray pump attached. The regular bug stuff for all kinda insects will work. Now spray the entire surface of all the carpets and rugs in your home. Don't forget the edges and baseboards. Fleas are hard to get rid of. Make sure you shower after and launder your clothing. Now go out and have some fun for a couple hours so the juice will work. Being extra careful to not keep things laying around on the floor will also help. Fleas can live on people just as well as animals.

This happened to us too when we moved.... I liberally, sprinkled the carpets with baking soda, mixed with iodized salt and left it sit for a couple days or longer if you can. The baking soda/ salt dissolves the eggs/larve...The foggers only kill the adult fleas. We ended up using the Raid foggers 12 cans...If you have a basement don't forget to set atleast one down there or the fleas will "flea" down there to escape...!!! Vacuum everyday-and empty the bag/canister outside. It took us a good week to rid ourselves.. My last resort was when we moved our dog in I DID NOT give her flea treatment for acouple days..The fleas "fled" to her and I gave her treatment and they died.... If you have to borrow an untreated cat and do the same...

Stop spraying and be patient. Your problem is that the eggs are hatching. You have to wait for the cycle to end. You will eventually be flea free. You'll kill yourself if you keep going. If you feel you must keep applying a product then use a carpet fresh flea powder and vacuum often.
