Ironically I come here seeking Indoor advice

Roommate has had a dog for years but this summer is the first year there's ever been a problem with fleas inside. Bombed the house yesterday but there are still some stragglers. Treated the dog's outdoor area with sevin granules ladt week ahead of the rain and that has helped some too, but im looking to drop the mother fricking hammer on these little bastards.

What do you baws recommend?

We had to do this at our camp recently. Bombs worked somewhat, but there were several rooms with carpet that we had to rip out to completely get rid of them.

Get the dog the oral medication for flea control. It interrupts the fleas' life cycle. Let the dog run around picking up the fleas and in short time the flea population is gone. You can also clean and vacuum the place.

Mostly wood floors but been vaccuuming the rugs and couches like a mofo. Washing sheets too. Think/hope the scales have tipped in our favor but want to go for the killshot now. The dog is on the oral med so thats good. Guy at tractor supply said they have been selling tons of flea products so they must be bad all over the area.

Bengal flea spray worked for us a few years ago when we had the problem.

Make the room dark except for a nightlight plugged in to the outlet. Put a white bowl with water under the light. I don't know why, but the fleas literally jump in the bowl and drown themselves. shite works.

I tried diatomaceous earth in our basement. The only downside is you have to leave it out for a week or so. That plus the bug bombs for bed bugs worked.

Adams products have always worked for me. Dogs are on the oral treatment so I don't bother with shampoo. In the house you can use the spray, there are two types, or the bombs. Adults, larvae and eggs will be killed.

Get all your plates out of the cabinet and lay them throughout the house and pour some water in them. When the fleas jump they will lane in the plates of water and drown.
It's better than spraying all them chemicals and poisoning your family and pets.

This, and anything else is a waste of time. You'll reduce they're numbers but until you solve the problem at the source it's going to keep coming back. Been there done that, now all my dogs are on the pill.

That would be my suggestion too.

One ounce makes a gallon. Can spray in or out. May have to spray a couple of weeks apart to interupt flea life cycle.

One pint of this make 16 gallons of spray. Get a cheap 1 gallon sprayer. Gets roaches, ticks, ants and spiders too.
