I'm not letting the cats out anymore! We've been flea-free for 2 whole years after keeping them inside but now that I've broken down and started letting them out again, I see a flea!

Guess I'll have to get some of that super cool anti-flea stuff at the pet store next week when I get my retro.

I have a natural way to kill them on your rugs, sprinkle Borax on them and let it sit for a few hours then vacuum it up. It also works on other bugs too.

here it's not prescription. You can buy it at the pet store. A little expensive but well worth it.
