How to Eliminate Fleas from Your Home for Good

One day when Karen went to pet her dog, she noticed small black bugs crawling on the floor. She picked up one and realized it was a flea! After doing some research, she found that when a person or animal is bitten by a flea, they are likely to have an allergic reaction. The bite can also lead to other problems like tapeworms and infections in the skin
Karen’s dog had been scratching at his fur for days but he didn’t seem to be bothered by it. Karen took him to the vet and learned that he had contracted fleas when he slept outside during their vacation last month. She was told that when a flea bites, it produces saliva. If this saliva comes into contact with the dog’s bloodstream and enters his skin, the dog will have an allergic reaction.

The vet gave Karen instructions on how to rid her home of these pesky pests for good! She learned that most people are successful in getting rid of them by vacuuming every day for two weeks at least twice a week; spraying their carpets or furniture with pet-friendly chemicals like Frontline Plus or Advantage II monthly; washing all bedding weekly in hot water plus adding detergent containing insecticide (like Hartz Dog & Cat Repellent); bathing pets once a month using special shampoos designed especially for killing fleas and their eggs, such as Frontline Plus shampoo or Advantage II.

She also learned that when the environment is not treated properly, fleas will live in carpeting and upholstery for periods of time before they disappear and move on to a new host. Karen was advised to continue monthly treatment until no more are found; this typically takes about six months!

-There is no single way to stop them because some people have pets, while others don’t. And still, other people may not realize they’re infected until their dog has major health problems

How to Eliminate Fleas from Your Home for Good (Part Two)
The first thing anyone should do when seeing signs that their pet might be carrying fleas is invested in effective topical treatment. This product usually comes as either dip or spray form so it’s important to choose the best one suited to your needs and budget. If you’re struggling with the decision, speak to your vet and they should be able to guide you.

While some topical products need to be applied monthly or even weekly when dealing with a heavy infestation, others are designed for use when there are only one or two fleas in the home. This is an important distinction that’s not always made clear when first hearing about these treatments so it’s best to ask questions before making any decisions.

After applying this treatment at least twice, vacuum thoroughly on all surfaces including bedding and furniture then dispose of the bag outside as soon as possible. Fleas can survive off blood from just one host for up six months so it pays to take as many precautions when fighting against them as possible.

When purchasing any products for use when fighting fleas in a home, always make sure to read the labels carefully and follow instructions as closely as possible when applying these treatments. If you have questions at all about how best to rid your property of these pests then consult with an expert such as your vet or local pest control company if they’re available.

It’s important when treating a dog that has never had problems before is brought into the house that it be treated separately from other pets so there isn’t cross-contamination between them because different breeds can react differently when exposed to topical treatments while others are much less sensitive than some dogs might be. It’s also necessary when dealing with this issue on cats to keep them separate when they’re being treated and when the treatments are finished.

This is a huge issue for pet owners because it can be difficult to rid your property of fleas when you have multiple pets in the house, each with different sensitivities or allergies thus making some more at risk than others when exposed to topical treatments such as Frontline Plus that’s been applied on one animal while another might suffer from skin irritation when exposed too.
