                    I have 3 cats and I'm being eaten alive by fleas!!!! They must be drawn to me because no-one else seems to be affected!!!!
I gave the cats spot-on and have sprayed carpets with flea spray and hoovered a lot, but I'm still getting bitten!
I take a garlic capsule everyday as apparently that is meant to help just wondered if anyone had any other home remedies?!
Thanks in advance!

            I found normal frontline did not work very well so bought the more expensive combo frontline plus strayed the whole house but my two still have flees. I use a small comb every day on them and get lots out but I know that's just the tip of the iceberg. They are 18 month old Maine Coons I wonder if the need a larger dose but I have not seen any. Hate flees I get bitten all the time too.Save £12k in 25 No 49
