Home Remedies for Fleas

Does anybody have a frugal way to remove fleas from a home and animals that is safe? We have a Yorkie (about 3 lb) and a cat that is a lot bigger. The fleas came home on us from my parents' home and infested our home. I'm trying to control two homes. Any ideas?

I have 7 dogs and I only use 1 clove of garlic per 10lbs. I put it in some beef stock and cook it until almost tender then it taste like beef and my dogs all love it and if you have fleas in carpet try using table salt and leave it on for 5 min. Then vacuum the the flea eats salt but the salt kills them.

I've had very good sucess with all my dogs over the years- 30+ years, giving them a garlic tab every day. They have no fleas - fleas ready don't like garlic.
