[QUOTE="Star*, post: 119397, member: 4964"] OH BABAAAAAAAAY!!!!! kitty hugs. (pets kitty and hands new mouse toy) You know - I have an albino dog - and he couldn't take frontline so well so we do put it on him but give him a break in our home in the winter months - we still have ticks to worry about - but it makes him itch - it's either itch from the medicine or itch from the fleas. I don't know how bad your situation is - but I can tell you if you want to know how bad your situation is flea wise -= put a white dish with a rim on the floor. Put water in it and add DAWN dishwashing detergent. Then put a lamp on the floor so the light reflects in the dish - the fleas will GO for the light and hit the white dish and can't get out of the Dawn. If they are in your carpet - they will live for months on nothing - no food, not water - and get into your vacuum. Change the bag constantly. THey will get in the couch, in the baseboards - and they will be back with eggs not usually killed by the spray - in a about 45 days - so you will have to spray again - BUT BUT BUT ------- DO NOT SPRAY THAT CARPET WITH THE KITTIES IN THE HOUSE _ IT CAN KILL THEM. Put them in their cat carrier and take them to your Moms or something - ALSO - if she's sensitive about the Frontline - we have FLEATASTIC results with the shelter dogs with Dawn detergent. THe regular blue kind. You wet the animal - and then soak them in a thick paste of Dawn. Leave it on for about 10 minutes - use a flea comb and then - rinse with tepid water. The fleas can't breathe through the Dawn, but the buggers get in between toes and in places you don't think of - so even after the bath - flea comb again - If you use attachments to vacuum furniture - wash your attachments out with dawn too for flea eggs. They make electronic flea traps that work pretty good - and you can BET if I rented there - I would be calling the landlord, showing my vet records and telling them the cost of a professional bug spray will be coming off my rent - argh Sorry for you Hugs Star:sick: [/QUOTE]
