I totally agree as well. You need to treat EVERYTHING (pet, home, yard) simultaneously multiple times before you get those nasty pests gone. It's really painful. Another recommendation - after you vacuum and empty the contents outside, use a flea repellant spray on your vacuum cleaner. The fleas will live in the dust/dirt left in the vacuum as well.
