Hello! I posted a month or so ago about how my 9 month old cat Koba had a bad case of fleas. I followed the advice given to me (thanks again!) by using a drop treatment (Frontline), using flea spray, and vacuuming regularly. This seemed to work and life went back to normal for awhile.
This past week, however, I noticed Koba itching and biting himself pretty badly along with flea droppings everywhere (about a week before the next drop treatment was due). We waited a few days and then administered his next treatment. Since the treatment is supposed to continue working for 30 days, will it eventually kill out all of the fleas? It says the fleas will die as soon as they jump onto him, and eventually they’ve all gotta eat, right? I’m vacuuming every day as well to try and get the eggs and larvae out of the carpet as well as washing bedding. The reason I’m asking this is because my parents don’t want to use foggers or sprays unless it’s absolutely necessary, and they’re hoping just the treatment continuing to work as well as constant vacuuming will be enough to rid the infestation. I don’t think it’s too bad anyways, as he sleeps with me every night and I haven’t noticed any bites on myself. If you’ve taken the time to read this, thank you.
