So much to our chagrin, we discovered this weekend that we have fleas. We suspect they originated in the room that''s DH''s office. It was the former tenant''s dog''s room and seeing as we''re not in there often, we''ve not noticed the problem until now. The other night DH had two jump on him. We thought we were in the clear because the animals don''t go in there often, but we noticed that they''re all a bit itchy lately. Admittedly, once the weather got cold we fell off the Frontline wagon and lapsed in treating them. Now I''m thinking that what I thought were itchy dry skin bumps on my legs might be bites. So we treated all of the animals with FL and now we''re going to bomb the house. I''ve never used a fogger before. Do I need to do the entire house or just the rooms with carpet? Do foggers kill immediately or will we need to wait awhile to see results? I know I should segregate the animals, how long do they need to be out of the room for? And what brand works best? I know there are all sorts of powders and sprays on the market. Is a fogger the way to go?
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated!
