    we had this issue...
    I baught a spray for the beding/carpet and its got them under control.

    Can your dog get under your house - i know Boofhead can get under mine and gets them for under there (a friend is a dog groomer) and i also wash him in a flea shampoo that has teetree - dont let him out side (beyond piddleing/ pooing) and then put on exelpet the next day.

    But Boofs also just realised he can catch rabbits so is getting a bath weekly thanks to them lol.

    I use Revolution on my dog and it seems to work pretty well. ANd yes you're right - all these things are supposed to stop the flea cycle and make it unnecessary to do anything to the house, their bedding etc.

    Just a thought - are they definitely "pet" fleas as opposed to sand fleas? If they're sand fleas it could be why the conventional flea stuff isn't working so well.

    How do I tell the difference? I don't have 'sand' perse but lots of garden.
