Friends cats have fleas and they're not being treated
Comments

The fleas will bite human and animal just some people will react to the bite with a red mark others will not.
I can't believe that your friend or whoever lives in the house have not either had a reaction or at least seen a flea!
Tell them.
are the cats seen by a vet?
if not suggest they are,they can become quite ill if repeatedly bitten
I suspect your friend is trying to ignore the problem hoping it will go away,partly out of not knowing how to deal with it or out of embarrassment,who knows but these things are common in pets and its really beat to tackle them
your friend may be put out by your directness but the situation needs sorting for all living in the house.in S 38 T 2 F 50

Hello,
I am also facing same problem with my cat she continuously losing her hair day by day please tell me any natural treatment, please tell me.
Thanks0 -
If it's got that bad (and you're not about to spam us with natural suggestions) then you probably need full on chemical warfare in the form of proper flea treatments and a visit to the vet.All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

You need a vet, not a 'natural treatment'.
You are also breaking the law btw.0 -
I recommend you to just talk to your frined dnt hesitate. And if you talk to him i recommend you to suggest him/her the pill nitenpyram (Capstar) as it kills adult fleas on your cat within 30 minutes. It doesn’t have any lasting effects, though. Spinosad (Comfortis) is a fast-acting chewable that starts killing fleas before they lay eggs. It provides a full month of flea protection to help prevent future hatchings.0
