I get something from the vet as pill, taken every 3 months. No flea issues for past 5 years at least.


That would be a preventative, not a treatment. The OP needs treatment for active fleas.

Where do you live? Do you treat for Heartworm monthly?

I give mine Simparica Trio every month - prevents Heartworm, fleas, ticks, and other worms.

They make pills like that are are flea only like Comfortis, it kills the fleas as they bite so it can be used as a treatment too.

My advice would be to give them a flea pill, bathe them in dish soap, and use a smoke bomb for the room where they sleep.

It will kill the fleas on them and the others will leave the area without a host
