How do you know if you have a flea infestation in your home?

Walk across the room with white socks. If you see black specks, you have an infestation.

You want to catch this problem as early as you can. Trust me, if you can put on socks and see them jumping on your feet that's pretty bad. You don't want to wait for the sock test to be a viable test. The minute you think you got a bite put a white dish with some soapy water (not full of bubbles, just gently mix in a good amount of dish soap) on the floor and use a reading lamp or whatever light will work to put a light about a foot high over the soapy water. Leave it overnight, the only light in the room the lamp light over the soapy water. If there is a single flea in that room it will be dead in the water in the morning. If you check it in the morning and it's empty, just soapy water, there are no fleas.

You can usually tell because there will be small bit marks all over your body. It usually starts around the ankles until the fleas make there way into the beds and carpet and then you will start to see bit marks on your legs, arms, stomach etc. If you really want to know if you have fleas place a white towel or white sheet down on your floor until you notice little black bugs hopping around on it. You'll have your answer then!

not unless you have a flea infestation in your house. Are you being bitten? If not, then no, just treat the dog.

I believe it helps.I put it on my cats bed and any other place she may sleep and we have not had a flea infestation yet this year as compared to last year.My cat goes out in the yard and woods every morning and thus is around fleas and ticks.

Can't say really. I bombed the place for fleas and it was pretty effective. The fleas came back at one point, but it is really hard to keep them out anyways. But it was many months. Can't say that is because it lasted for that long though.

I'd imagine that if you can see the fleas this should kill them on contact. I needed it for carpet. Fleas kept cycling. This the only thing that works.

No we haven't had issues with fleas. I suppose it's possible that they could get them but we have never seen any on our cat.

Yes and we get big ones at the beach at night. Really works on fleas too. Kills them on contact. We walk our dogs near the sand and my dogs will pick up fleas. We spray them down before we go into the house. Also works on ants bees etc

es. Within two weeks of applying the flea medicine they were itching again. My one cat has allergic reactions to the fleas so there is no doubt that the little buggers were back.

I think you will need to bomb the house if you have fleas in your carpet. The Advantage is to put on your pet.

There is a tag for fleas and a tag for ticks in each pack. The tags are labeled so you know which one is which.

Actually, I never tested it on fleas and I don't have any pets to test that theory. I purchased it to assist in the removal of silverfish in my home, and it appeared to help very well while also keeping clothes from getting musty.

I have found it best to spray everything, as I don't want the fleas to come back. I started with the furniture then the floors. One application should work to kill the fleas and eggs. Just remember to vacuum the floor and furniture first.

Hi Julie-I started in mid July which is right smack in flea season. My kittens scratched a few times during that month and as I gave them their "treats" the scratching has gone. Now we are coming into autumn there are way less fleas but I still give them their treats
