Heidi,

Sorry to hear your fleas are so bad. You might want to consider a professional extermination service at this point. Are you vacuuming every day? That’s one of the most effective ways to get rid of fleas in your carpets, as well as using a borate based flea powder, which is non-toxic. Check out our page on killing fleas in your carpet for more information.

I have had a fearce problem with fleas for over a month now!! I have BOMBED, bathed, sprayed, dipped and even used Adams flea monthly repellant. Ques what…still have them. I’m at the point to where I just want to burn the place down to get rid of them. Worst part is when I visit mt family, I have to drown my pets in flea dip cause I’m so paranoid of getting even more.

Hi Denise,

I’m sorry to hear you have such a bad infestation. That’s sounds horrible, especially after two professional exterminations. Are you vacuuming regularly, and using a borate flea powder on your carpets? Those powders are non-toxic to pets and kids, so they should be safe to use. Check out our page on killing fleas in your carpet for more information. Good luck!

We are having an awful time with fleas. We have had a Professional Exterminator here twice now to spray, and they are still, just awful. Im ready to pack up and leave my home, I have a 6 month old baby I cant even allow her to play on the floor, However the few times she has they have bit her which is good but I dont want to take the chance either. Can you help?

Thank you. This advice may come in handy. I do have a question though.
How would you treat a home that has wood flooring?

So you’re suggesting that I become an alcoholic?
Thanks, you’ve really solved my flea problem, and yet I was thinking of harsh street drugs!!

my roomie has 2 black haired dogs that come into my room and office all the time. all the sudden i was studying and felt something prick me, the bite was pimp size and it looked like it had a pin prick in the middle, the itching didnt last very long, and was totally gone by the next day. then the next night in bed im getting bit so i stripped my covers, and i really think its fleas but my roomate doesnt believe me… because she doesnt have any fleas in her room (where the dogs sleep) and that the dogs dont have any fleas (they get monthly stuff done)… so i went and bought massive flea spray to spray in my office and bedroom, vac’d, washed my bedding, and sprayed all over on the carpet near my bed under my bed, all over and then left all day. her bf asked if i could show him one, so i come home today to see if the spray worked and i have black dots all over my carpet but when i pull them off the carpet they just look like fuzz. sSO I GUESS I SHOULD GET TO THE POINT.. AFTER YOU SPRAY YOUR CARPET, IS THAT WHAT THE “FLEAS” are supposed to look like? little balls of fuzz? i would love someone to tell me what their fleas lookedl ike after they sprayed and if they looked at all like tiny black fuzz balls. :)
