Sorry it has taken so long, but I will try to help. Give the cats a salt water bath. Also, I have heard that sprinkling salt on the floor before vacuuming will kill the fleas. I don't remember how long to leave the salt down, though.

 

Good luck,

Sorry to hear about the fleas but it brought back a funny story. I was in kindergarten in 1937 and my two brothers and I were quarantined with the measles. After three weeks and no healing in sight, we found out it was flea bites. The doctor must not have known his you know what from a hole in the ground. My dad even moved to the shed behind the house so he wasn't quarantined with us.I got to build a lot of the glue together solid model and rubber band propelled airplanes.

That was a funny story about the fleas in kindergarten. My husband will

know if there is a flea around and I will not know. Guess its the

sweetness in him!!!

Sargent makes a product called "Natures Guardian" that is an herbal flea repellant. I got it at the grocery store in the pet section. It seemed to help if the infestation is not too bad. I does have a strong smell. Blessings, Mary
