Just a few questions so I can better answer your inquiry:

Do you have a cat or dog? Both? How many each?
Age/size of pets?
Are you using any flea treatment currently?

Thank you,

1 cat. never had fleas before i moved to this new apartment 10 months ago. she had long hair and wasn't sure if she had fleas, so i brought her to the vet. he shaved her and applied frontline. i cleaned, bombed, sprayed and powered every inch of my home, still i have them, i don't see alot, but they are still there. especially on top of my mattress. i'm trying to move into another place and this is holding me up and i just spent $2000 on a bed and i'm afraid that its ruined. please help...
