We don't have pets but have discovered fleas in our house. Why are they here and how do you get rid of them?

We had friends to visit last weekend and we know that they had fleas last summer. Although they didn't bring any pets with them, could they have brought fleas?We don't have pets but have discovered fleas in our house. Why are they here and how do you get rid of them?Yes, visitors can bring fleas in their clothes, suitcases, etc. If you have neighbors who have a flea problem, it could also spread to your house. This is what happened to us. Our neighbors did not treat their pets for fleas, so the fleas just expanded into our yard, then into our house. They got in our mattress and I woke up every night with flea bites on my stomach. Nasty! The only way to truly kill fleas in a house is to have an exterminator come and spray your ENTIRE house. B/c they can shack up in drapes, mattresses, carpet, blankets, couches, etc. If you miss some, they will continue to lay eggs and multiply. Call a bug man and have your entire house exterminated!We don't have pets but have discovered fleas in our house. Why are they here and how do you get rid of them?you can buy flea smoke 'bombs' thay look like a volcano firework, but they do work. Do it on a nice day so you go to the park with your baby for a couple of hours. Then when you come back open all windowns and hover write through. Used to be able to get them in hardware shop called Robert Dyres if you have 1 local but any good hardware store shold stock them.We don't have pets but have discovered fleas in our house. Why are they here and how do you get rid of them?Yes they could of carried the flees in, but saying that even if you leave the door open if you have a cat/dog problem in your area (stray ones that is) the flees could of just walked..well jumped into your house.

I would recommend buying a flee spray and go mad in your house (if you dont have small children that is).

Or i have linked a web page to diy.We don't have pets but have discovered fleas in our house. Why are they here and how do you get rid of them?
Fleas can come in on your shoes and pantlegs from the yard. I had to but a flea chemical and use a spreader to kill them in the yard.
