We have a terrible problem with fleas here too. I have a greyhound and some products can be fatal to them. I've tried Frontline, Advantage, and the new Wal-Mart one but none of them seem to work. I'm going to try the Dawn and see if it helps. Lizzie won't be too happy about getting a bath but hopefully she will be more comfortable.
Use the Simple Greent to bathe and then try the adams (applies just like Frontline); I think my daughter got it from walmarts also; it is working on our Akita and I'm getting ready to get it for my american eskimo. They also make a dip; I know that I can get it at Care a lot pet supplies. You can get 7 dust from home depot and it helps outside. For my carpets and furniture and even the dogs (I don't use it on cats) raid has a flea spray in a purple can that works really well. It even says to use it on the animals. Also; putting garlic in thier food helps with skin and fleas don't like it. I guess that's why when one jumps on me it never bites; I eat alot of garlic.
