I have 3 indoor cats and still get flea infestations. It's ME bringing them in from outside! So I have to have Animal Reg come in and trap the racoons, possums and skunks that cruise through my yard every night, dropping their fleas as they come to fish in my pond!
Any flea within 100 yards will beat feet to get to me!
And vacuuming every day does help, but unfortunately I don't have time for that

Seems like the heat this summer has made the flea problem worse. We use Frontline but our house backs on a woods and we have to watch our cat pretty diligently to be sure she doesn't bring fleas into the house.

Move to Wyoming. It gets so cold here that we don't have fleas.

Hosta, my daughter tried every thing (bombing, frontline and such, vacumning) all to no avail. Finally one of the girls in the vets office said, use the frontline on the dog and use RID lice spray on the house and be sure to trea the yard. Well she sprayed the house with the RID and then vacumned and then sprayed it again and she has not had fleas since. The lice spray also kills flies!!

We had them 2 times and use Frontline now. We sprayed the house every 3 weeks 3 times to get all the eggs. They pick out one person in the house to bit. Both times it was my husband. The vet said just another dog walking buy they will jump on your dog. Also said you could get them at the vet office from other dogs. Flea collars don't work. Have never had them since using Frontline.

So far, nothing has worked on my greyhound. Just gave her Comfortis a few days ago and she still has fleas. We've tried Pet Armor, Frontline, Advantage, washed with Dial liquid, bombed the house and still have a problem. Guess I'll try water and dish soap. I've never had this much problem with fleas until now and we used to live in FL.

We went thru that one year so I know how you feel. After bombing the house twice, we got some spray from the vet, which took care of the problem. Frontline seems to keep them at bay every year now.

We use Sentry pills for the outside dogs. They have to have heartworm protection and the flea meds are in the pill too. All the cats outside, all five of them (we have acres of lawn and yard) get Revolution once a month and a pill. We get a lot of stray cats here. I lure them with food and get them in the carrier and they go to the vets to get fixed and then released. If the cat runs loose around my property it's going to be fixed. The world does not need another litter of helpless kittens.

We had the same problem last year and finally had to get the prescription meds from our vet and they solved the problem in a very short time.
