Our cat Athena is a fluffy girl and we just found a flea on her, we removed it and crushed it but now my girlfriend is freaking out and her skin is squirming thinking the whole house could be infested. I’m of the opinion that we’ve caught it early and we should just check her usual sleeping spots as well as get a flea comb but my girl is damn near ready to buy a steam cleaner for the rug.
Idk, what do you guys think? How should we handle this?
Thankfully we have very little fabric in our tiny apartment, I would imagine our vinyl floors are not fleas favorite places. Were in the middle of some monumental purchases rn so I’m not sure we can afford pest control, but what we can do is hit every spot of textiles in our house, might just go for the steam cleaner after all
Found a few flees in the carpet last months ago, cleaned up, hoovered etc… then haven’t seen any more since. A good clean, flee comb an a few sticky catcher-thingies should do the job fine.
