Hey everyone, I’m really embarrassed to post this but hoping maybe someone else will have more insight as to what we’re missing or doing wrong? About a week ago we noticed fleas in our basement. We’ve bombed it and it seems the problem has spread to our upstairs from even going down there and coming back up with a few fleas on us. We have 2 dogs, 5 cats, 2 ferrets, and a multitude of stray cats outside all TNR. We take pride in our animal husbandry, 2 dogs and 5 cats all have Seresto collars placed on in march, not cheap. The ferrets get ferret advantage solution, as well as the TNR cats all get advantage. This is a really hefty bill and they ALL have fleas this week from this problem in our basement (the animals cannot access the basement.) We are vacuuming multiple times daily, steaming floors with tile, stripping dog beds and couches and washing every few days. 661
I’m kind of understanding why people think homes with multiple pets are filthy, no matter how much we clean it seems this is a bigger problem than originally thought. Will their flea solutions kill the fleas or is this going to stay on them? I’m going to flea powder our carpets and remove the animals from the home for the day. Do we have to buckle down and call an exterminator for this? Sorry if formatting is incorrect I’m on mobile. Thanks for reading. TLDR; animals in home and outside all have the best flea medication, fleas started in our basement terrorizing them and our home upstairs. What else can we do? 661
