Also if u do have pets you need to treat them to. I went through sooo many brands with none that worked but finally found some that worked. Trifexis for dogs is amazing and revolution for cats. I will never try another brand of flea med. Plus both prevent heartworms too.

My husband used the carpet powders but refused to have me in the house until he vacummed. We also used the home defense that include flees. We did although also get rid of our cat for other reason then the flees. I was all the blankets frequently and vacummed a ton. They are gone now. Took a while though.

I also used diatomaceous earth! They were gone in about a week. I just left it sprinkled on the ground for a few days that way all the fleas got it on them. And then vacuum really good. To check if they're still there I took a flash light and pointed it at a shallow dish full of water and dish soap on the ground. They are attracted to the light and jump at it but endbup falling in the water which kills them. Good luck

I used borax and diatomaceous earth. Sprinkled around my house and in corners. Vacuum daily. Wear a mask just to keep from breathing in the dust. Worked great.
