Default Fleas

My mate had a neighbours cat wander in the other day and roll on his carpet, he noticed it had fleas so kicked it straight out again. Only problem is both his cats and his dog have now got fleas. I tihnk he said hes using fromtline on the cats and the dog, but he wants to know if there is something he can use on his carpets and furniture??

yes you can buy a house hold spray from supermarkets or the vets which kills them on carpets ,furniture curtains.

Sorry but can't remember the names of these sprays.

our old house got flea's off a manky cat, the supermarket upholstery stuff didnt work so we got some cans of aerosol stuff from the vets and done the house out with that and it sorted it. it had to be done room by room with the door shut, the fumes were very strong indeed!

if they have fleas they will have worms aswell, the two are linked in a cycle which you must break. worm them aswell as spraying with frontline.

Cool, I will let him know, hes more worried about the dog than anything as it she rather expensive, and hes hoping to breed her in the future and he doesnt want to make her ill

fleas can live in carpets too long, frontline the animals for a few weeks then they will all be gone.
