I've got something from Johnsons that always seems to work. I've never actually seen a flea before though.

[Bob Eager]

It gets into the animal's bloodstream.

[Tough Guy no. 1265]

I wonder if they make such a thing to get into our blood stream to kil mosquitoes? Mind you that would be too late.

That link was just for information. Any decent pet shop or pet supplies will have it.

You'll need to treat all the cats as they will have picked up fleas from the new one.

Most cats will go berserk if you try and spray them with an aerosol spray.

[Bob Eager]

Yes. We have one cat who hides in an inaccessible corner of the bedroom. Since she also like to get under the bottom edge of the bedding at 3 a.m. and nibble toes, she has to be got out before we go to bed.

I keep a can of compressed air in the bedroom. Half a second squirt and she's gone.

[Tough Guy no. 1265]

It's ok, I can run faster than the cat.

Using several letter Fs seems to make my cats move.

"when warm and active, their movements are more ant-like" doesn't seem to match. The photo is rubbish though...

The photo is very clear, get a new monitor or a pair of specs.

If you had hot running water in your shithole of a "home" you would not be infested by parasites. It is accepted that when you go to the toilet, you wash your hands in hot water. You do not have running hot water in your hovel. How many other people have you infected? Dirty bastard.

4 fleas or 4 cats?

To make sure the fleas never reawake to live in your house then I suggest Indorex. The fleas and their larve can lie dormant in carperts etc for a while.

It was the only answer when I fostered a flea infested moggie.

[Tough Guy no. 1265]

Noted. So you spray the 500ml aerosol all over the house?

[ARW]

On all carpets etc.

In this case it was only one room, as that is where the foster cat slept/lived.

[Mr Pounder Esquire]

Peter does not have any hot running water in his hovel. He can't afford it, being on the old king cole and all of that. No wonder the hovel is infested by fleas and other ...... things .....

Two pronged approach. When fleas do appear, out comes the Indorex. Not had to use it for a couple of years, though - the Advocate works better than the previous stuff (Frontline).

[Bob Eager]

WE have 4 or 5 cans of the stuff in the cupboard.

Your capitalisation made it look like you were going to write ner ner ner ner ner at the end.

[Bob Eager]

Lagging shift key.

Not as bad as a terminal I once used that 'lagged' the shift key badly.

We all typed (once): rm *.o on those. Once.

[Tough Guy no. 1265]

Sure it's not a lagging finger? I do that. Also makes you type form instead of from.

I do not understand.

[Mr Pounder Esquire]

WE have a dog, West Highland Terrier. She has never had fleas as she gets the preventative treatment. We have no cans of "the stuff" in the cupboard. We have a dog, not a stinking cat.
