If you are renting, the landlord may provide pest control - however, don't count on anything that is provided being safe for cats.

Do you have a vaccuum? Even on linoleum it would be effective to vaccuum daily since the fleas are obviously hiding in minute cracks and seams. You will need to put an activated dog collar into the bag however, to kill any fleas emerging from unhatched eggs.

If you can get someone to take your cats for 8 hours or so, flea bombs do wonders. Do check label directions to see if the residue is safe for pets or if you will need to clean afterwards before allowing the cats back into the house. My friend uses bombs for her flea problems and whatever she uses is safe for the dog to return to after 8 hours or so.

Good luck! I hope someone else has some ideas!
