Flea infestations can affect more than just you and your pets. Although fleas must be present on a living host to survive, they can be found all around your home.

If you have a flea problem not only will your kitten have to be treated for fleas, but your home, furniture and other pets will need some attention as well. An effective flea treatment routine will involve cleaning carpets, furniture and other areas that your cat occupies frequently. Cleaning your cat’s environment is not only an effective way of natural flea control, but is also an excellent method of flea prevention. Fleas like to live and hide in thick carpets and blankets. Thoroughly wash all of these items your pet comes into contact with.
