Related: About this forumI hope Carys appreciates what I went through to find her some flea pills, today
Two stores that said they had them in stock, DIDN'T. I finally ended up driving to the next town over, and found them. I bought two packs. That should last a while.
All of the other kidcats are doing so good because I can comb them and apply a topical, if needed. Gryff had a reaction to the topical so he gets combed and he has finally accepted that I won't give up so he might as well surrender.
That's just impossible with Carys so I crush up a pill in her food. The few times she does snuggle up, I very carefully scritch her with a dusting of food grade diatomaceous earth, which also gets sprinkled on, in and around her favorite lounging places.
With the carpet being gone, once I get her under control, the problem should be over. For now, anyway. I'm sure that the carpet was a huge part of problem. It didn't matter how often I vacuumed or steamed it.

(7,080 posts)grocery store. Poke holes in the cover of a jar and sprinkle it around all the edges of your floors and under loose couch cushions. Broom 🧹 it in. Then dont vacuum for a week or so. The borax is perfectly safe for you and your cats. When a flea lays eggs the eggs will dry up and never hatch. I did this method twice a year for all the years I had dogs and never saw a flea. In Florida I sprinkle it around the perimeter of my garage. Recently had a palmetto bug on its back dying. They crawl through the borax and then lick their feet and they die. Hope you give it a try.
