I took care of 2 pitbulls a couple years back for a friend and they infested my house with fleas after I let them in one night.

I took several items from Home Depot and finally a flea guy to come in and kill these things. Let me just say it is a true bitch......

Those items you buy at the store can kill the fleas themselves but does absolutely nothing to the eggs fleas imbed in your carpet, or any cloth, etc....
(flea guy told me that)

I also learned fleas can go into hybernation until they feel comfortable to awake. Thus, when you think they are all gone....they really are not.

the reason why i stress houshold items is because the puppy is 8 weeks old and you cannot give a puppy flea control or flea shampoo until 10 to 12 weeks.

i just wasnt sure if it was the same for my boxer, i called the vet and they told me that just now...

so yeah, any other ideas are welcome, someone told me to go get dawn dishwashing soap and wash him in warm water so imma do that.

i was gone for 2 hours and this little mother fucker shredded 3 plants.

That's like going to the dollar store to get a new DVD, sure they have them there, but they don't have anything good.

I've gotten outdoor insect repellant and shit like that at Home Depot, but I sure as fuck wouldn't get pet products there.

if you read what he said he dont have a dog he was watchin someone else dogs and they left fleas behind so he went to Home Depot for a pest removal product not a pet product.....

my cat died but he left me the gift that keeps on giving, fleas. I don't wanna bomb the house, but I think I'm gonna have to.

I was reading on wikipedia that they go into dormant stages and then awaken when they feel movement or vibrations so they can find a host.

fuck fleas. the red hot chili pepper guy is coo tho.

pet store sells shit that wont harm a dog....he aint got a dog to worry about and home depot got that shit to get rid of roaches and ants and other hard to kill insects so id trust a product from them to get fleas out my carpet rather than some dog shampoo....

each place will have something that will do the trick. dont really matter where u go honestly. I'd say Home Depot for dealing with Outside insect problems, and the pet stoor for handling fleas in the house.
