Hi, I am new to your forum. My spoiled, much-loved kitty Inky has fleas. We got him nearly two years ago from the local spca; he is now a 6-year old neutered male, claws intact.
Well, we have given him two baths in the past week, and applied Hartz flea cream (the stuff that's like Advantage, but Hartz is available over the counter.) I looked on Inky last night and I still see several fleas.
I know I need to treat both the house and the cat, but it'll be tough since I have many pets which are reptiles and I do not want to kill them along with the fleas! Any advice? I plan on using those "bug bombs" because they were effective for me years ago before we got reptiles. Now I guess I'll just have to move my reps to a friend's house while treating. Any advice would be appreciated! Here's a piccy of Inky.
