My 2 year rescue, who I adopted a few months ago, now has fleas! I live with my boyfriend and he has a dog, so I wonder if the dog brought it in, but it’s anyone’s game. I think we may have caught them early because I have only been able to find 2 adult fleas on her, except she won’t let me touch her stomach. She’s on Revolution, which she takes once a month, but she’s a long haired cat, so I’m worried it might not work as well. She’s been on Revolution since before I got her.
Our apartment is hardwood floor, and so far we’ve washed every fabric in the bedroom or living room that she may have been near, gave her Revolution, sprayed her with a flea spray in the bath, and are going to spray the living room and nooks in the floor with home flea spray. I think I noticed them on the earlier side of the infestation, so I’m hoping I’m able to kill them all early on. I noticed the cat scratching a few times these past few days, but only saw a bug this morning. 😩 does anyone why have any suggestions?
I’m planning on vacuuming everyday, combing the cat every day, spraying her once a week, and spraying the apartment down as needed. I hate fleas, so this is disgusting to me. My cat also hates collars, and I’ve heard flea collars aren’t the most effective. The dog is also on medicine, so any flea that bites her will die. Any advice is appreciated!
