After fifty years of having cats co existing with me, for the first time, we have a flea problem. I want to nip it in the bud before it becomes a full on infestation. I used the fine comb on them, then applied advantage II for cats. Vacuum Vacuum Vacuum.
I don't know how long it takes for the chemical to work, or even how it works.
I have one cat that is indoor outdoor. My guess is my next step is to treat the yard, however, she doesn't know the property bounderies and who knows where she rambles to outside from my view. I have tried to make her an indoor cat but she is miserable. She was born outside and lived mostly outdoors at my former residence. She cried and cried for weeks when we moved, I had no choice to keep her in so she wouldnt try to return to the previous place.
I have gone back and forth about the risks of her being out, and the issue of her happiness. Anyhoo-
So back to the issue at hand. Is there a good non chemical way to deal with this long term. Not to mention the advantage was more than fifty bucks for one month treatment for 3 cats, actually you get 4 applicationg but I have to use 2 on my fat cat
Any info and advice would be greatly appreciated.
