Ahhhh! Flea!
by Rachel33 Sun Aug 10 2014, 21:52
I'm panicking! I found a single flea on Bug lol! She's never had them before, I've had a few bites the last week but assumed they were flies as I've been walking in the fields! I've got some frontline lying around so applied some, but have ordered some advantage as well as frontline is rubbish! Do I need to spray my house aswell?

Probably a good idea. Remember spraying an apple cider vinegar/water mix also works well around the house

Ooh good tip Lisa 
got everything ordered. Bugs bedding is all in on a hot wash. She is NOT happy lol!!! Trying to read and she's pushing herself onto my lap as the leather sofa is obviously not soft enough for the princess!!

Yeah she's not scratching at all and I haven't seen any more on her, might have just brought one in from the garden but I've hoovered to house twice and hot washed everything lol! Just waiting for the flea spray now. Might be overkill but better safe than sorry!! She's never had fleas in her life!!! X
