No matter what you use you will never get rid of them.

If you already have a flea infestation, medicating your pet
IS NOT going to rid the environment of the fleas! You have to treat your pets
AND the environment. Best thing is to use flea preventative on your animals. Humans can also bring in fleas so you can get fleas in your home even if your pets do not go outside. Also, if you do a chemical bomb, you are going to need to remove your pets from the area while fumigating.
