Fleas have invaded my house, and I’m determined to get rid of them once and for all. I’m looking for tried-and-true methods to keep them from coming back. Any strategies that work long-term? Would love to hear how others have tackled this!
Thanks a million!

Daily flea combing, deep clean the entire house, Capstar, and if possible treat the yard around the house, too.
Get a metal flea comb, not a plastic one. Dip it in soapy water between strokes so the fleas you remove don’t escape.
Hi, Eliminating a Flea Infestation
A flea infestation can be challenging, but a thorough approach can help eliminate it.
For Pets :
Consult your vet for appropriate flea treatments like topical or oral medications.
Regularly groom your pet with a fine-toothed comb to remove fleas and eggs.
For Your Home :
Vacuum carpets, rugs, furniture, and pet bedding thoroughly, disposing of the vacuum bag immediately.
Wash all bedding, including pet beds, in hot water.
Consider steam cleaning carpets and upholstery.
Use flea sprays or foggers on carpets and furniture.
Prevention :
Treat your yard with flea control products.
Regularly inspect pets and your home.
Vacuum frequently to prevent re-infestation.
