    I thought the idea of frontline was to make fleas infertile.... is that incorrect?

    Frontline kills fleas. Program makes the eggs they produce infertile, so is an insect growth regulator (IGR). Frontline combo also contains s-methoprene which is an IGR that prevents development of eggs, larvae and pupae.

    For the OP, most of the household sprays are horrid, but mainly when being sprayed. Can you check with your son's doctor if you sprayed 1st thing if it would be ok in the evening? Nice excuse for day out :) Only way to get rid of the fleas is to rid the house unfortunately!
  • another vote for stronghold,

    i used to use that then switched to frontline (a bit cheaper so thought i was saving money) but after a while it seemed to stop working, switched back to stronghold and no more problems!
    Can you see the mountains through the fog?
