I have 2 cats whom i’ve had for years. I recently purchased a home with dogs on both sides of me. I frontline both cats once monthly and have sprayed the interior of my home a number of times using indoor/outdoor pest sprays.
Clearly this isn’t working for me. Does anyone know of any good tricks or sprays? Thank you so much for your help!
I would suggest moving on to Frontline Plus, as this helps prevent further/reinfestation of the environment. You are getting the stuff properly on the cat’s skin, not their fur, aren’t you?
I would think the spray you’re using is ineffective. Many are. If it’s from a pet store, that’s a fair guarantee that it’s going to be ineffective. I would suggest you get a proper spray from a vets – Indorex, Acclaim, Staykil or Skoosh – and spray the whole house, then hoover the next day. Then turn up the heating a little to encourage remaining eggs to hatch, and repeat this process 10-14 days later. If you manage to get hold of Skoosh, you should only have to spray once.
Also try to educate your neighbours on proper flea control, if they’re receptive!
