The problem with fleas is that everything (bedding, rugs, pillows, etc.) has to be treated and then retreated 2-3 weeks later. All vacuum canisters/bags have to be emptied or replaced. We use a bug bomb first when we can be out of the house for several hours and then sprinkle in boric powder and leave a light coating on for a few days and then vacuum it up. Boric powder is an excellent and cheap solution. When they are extra tough, we have to get a spray from one of our pest control companies to spray down the house and bedding.
Fleas are very tough and can live dormant for quite a while. If you have pets all around your building, it's also easy to track them in or have them live on your doormat and squeeze thru your door frame. Good luck. |
