More Flea Questions

I have a bad flea infestation and have used spray I got from the vet, which did not work, and then I bombed the house. The next day they were worse than ever. I have read where you can put a bowl of water down under a light and the fleas will jump in and drown. Last night I set out my water bowls throughout the house and added a tealight candle in them to float around. I turned out all the lights and was amazed at all the fleas. I also put a little dawn in the water. The candle light draws the fleas to the water. It is not going to take care of the problem but it is going to get a lot of these pesty bugs.

Actually, fleas don't like water. And it can happen without pets. Did you leave something outside for a day or two, then brought it in. That might have something to do with it.

I was wondering if anyone has heard of using Vaseline on a cat for a bad infestation of fleas and eggs or nest?
