I didn't think I was going to have this problem so soon...didn't we just get over it? but I got the 20 mule borax out and it really works..threw it on the ground around where he goes and put some on the carpet over night...ran sweeper and so far so good...those little critters are not going to get the best of me this year ........it's been three days now and I haven't seen any..soooo the ground did look like it snowed when I got done though..hehe..but the rain came just right and its now down in there where it is suppose to be... when I was at the store buying the Borax there was a young girl with a baby getting some and she said to me..."I heard this works for fleas and Im infested.!!!"..they were getting on the baby I guess......ekkk .so I know I am not alone ..so keep your eyes out as "tis the season" again....or are they always here? !!!!

Always always always...and as this year is supposed to be a really warm one, we need to be even more vigilant.

You're absolutely right goddess. I took Ed to the Vet & had him dipped, just to be on the safe side.

Heh heh heh...you should have heard my son squeal when I had him done. Of course I had to wait a couple of weeks after I had him neutered.

Wow, I never felt closer to you than I do now. Wait 'til I tell my son that he's not the only kid who is mentally abused. (He calls me Rosanne.) When my final day comes around, I want you to take over for me. He'll never know the difference. ;D

Vacuuming is great except you must empty the vacuum each time unless it is a water type receptacle, otherwise it will become a harbor for flea eggs to hatch out in. Tonya

I have heard it is a good idea to cut up a flea color & put it in your vacuum bag.
