fleas- thank-you

[Guest guest]

Thanks for all your ideas, I got up at 6am and just finished

cleaning everything in the house top to bottom, but wanted to say

thank-you.

My vacuum blew up- so now I have to replace it, odd enough the thing

that had me stumped is the only room with the rug is where the dogs

are not allowed and the kids lay on it & watch TV? But I THINK I

found the source- and thank-you Kathy- behind the fridge which

admittedly isn't moved often but it was about 2 weeks ago because I

was looking for a lost phone # I had on a magnet. can't believe how

much dust, found some of the nasty creeps there and the around the

kitchen base boards.

With the pups only being 8 ounces I want to get rid of these things

my husband wantsto flea bomb, I can't take that, and any chemical

smell makes me sick to my stomach.

So I will get a new vacuum, and keep repeating- its been a few hours

since I bathed the dogs and so far no ones itching and haven't seen

a flea( knock wood)

thanks again

Gea,

Do you have by chance wormwood growing in your back yard ?

I can't prove it, but I've had no fleas, ever since I am in the habit ,

during summer, to take a few leaves, crush them in my hands than give

the cat a nice little petting with my wormwood scented hands.
