Fleas during this season ??

Kalista · 12-03-2006, 01:25 PM

I am very upset to see my two cats, Garfield and Pumpkin have their fleas in their neck. I bought two flea drop from the Vets yesterday. It apparently did not work because they straches their neck.

I will take Garfield to the Vets on Dec 12th to look through the fleas.

They are indoor cats !! It is so frustrated because I threw the carpet last summer to prevent the flea hatch in the carpet and floor.

GRRRRRR I hate the fleas !!

Depending on the type of flea drops given to your cats, usually it takes some time for it to be effective. It's also very helpful to thoroughly clean upholestries, carpet, spots where your cats frequent, washing linen, blankets in hot water, etc.,...yet, having another appointment with your vet can be a good thing too.

Good luck and hope you won't see any more fleas soon. I know this is frustrating, but hang in there!

I hate fleas!, I haven't seen at least one on Charlie yet, which he does currently uses frontline plus, maybe consider getting one for your cats, it's so strange about cats having fleas when they're house-hold cats, You can frequently dust, sweep, vacuum, and mop all surfaces where cats or you have been at to get rid of all the fleas and their laying eggs.

Sorry that you had to find out that your cats got fleas.
