Oh the flea thing, we use boric acid and nothing else. We have three cats and a dog and never see fleas. Just sprinkle it on your carpets and rub in, then don't vacumn for a week. We usually go a year or more before we have to re-treat. Fleas lay their eggs in the carpet and the boric acid dries it so that it is not a friendly envionment for the eggs. No eggs, no fleas. We also wash the animal bedding on a very regular basis.

Good luck

Sarah
