down the throats of our cats and one dog. It was effective in killing fleas on them but we have some rugs with fleas now. Pet owners, what is your go to flea killer once they get in your house.
This is how this came about - An indoor only cat got outside for about 15 mins. Days later I noticed a few fleas on her. We go on vacation for a week and come back to cats with fleas, alot of them.

Indoor flea bomb

Call a pest control company if bombs don't work.

Call an exterminator ASAP. They may need to come multiple times to completely get rid of them.

You going to need to spray inside and outside every 24 hrs. I believe fleas lay eggs and they hatch every 24 hrs. I am not an exterminator, but you need some strong poison and a pressure sprayer. Also get some of that shite you can connect to the water hose outside for the yard. Also, spray the yard a couple days in a row. I believe you can also get some granules that can be applied with a spreader. Basically, you need to kill them inside and outside. Then treat all the animals....good luck.

Gotta bomb them and then do it again 2 or 3 days later. Don't wait until you see them again to do it. Took me 4 times.

Get your guns & pictures out of the house.
Check homeowners policy
Burn house.
Actually, bug bombs.
Fleas reproduce super-fast when the weather is hot and humid. For that reason you gotta be more aggressive than usual.
Twice a week for 2 weeks.
If infestation is REALLY bad, bomb 3x the first week and 2x the second week.
Fleas really suck.

I dealt with some bad fleas from cats at my cousins house a while back.
I'd recommend calling an exterminator.
I probably spent over a $100 in bombs and carpet spray and shite. None of it worked.
Oh and vacuum, a lot. Several times a day.

I've had good results with Viper. It's a cypermethrin.

Thanks Gents! I have been a googling fool on this flea killing issue but I thought might as well utilize the intelligence gathered through other's experience within the OB family. I just found out a friend of mine who I had not seen in several years now has a 2 man bug killing business. I'll give him a jingle and see what gives.

Bomb that shite to hell..spend the night out.
My wife, newborn and I went to Santa Barbara for 5 nights some years ago.. Came back to an infestation.. The dogs were boarded but my neighbors had numerous cats.. Best I could figure was the dogs medicine was taking care of them until they were taken out of the area.. The cats crossing under the house consistantly brought them into my domain with nothing to latch onto and eventually be terminated.. When I walked through my kitchen and looked down at my sock.. It
was covered with probably. 50-100 fleas.. Vacated the
premise and dropped 7 bombs in the house for overkill.. Swept those frickers up the next day and bombed again a few days later.. Never had an issue again

Cats can take Comfortis too?

Ultracide. You'll get somewhat instant relief, seem like you're getting reinfested after a week or so, then those will die soon after. Has an IGR (insect growth regulator) that sterilizes and kills for up to 7 months. Vacuum and dispose of contents before treating. After treating and it's dried, vacuum and dispose of contents again.
