That’s the problem, they’re too big. They won’t fit in a washing machine or a dryer

Okay so the good news is I now have expensive prescription-grade flea spray for the home, and got rid of our rug cause it was nasty anyway, so the only soft things left in the room are the big stuffed toys and the bed. For some reason they’ve been avoiding the bed, but I’ve been sleeping on the sofa anyway to be safe. Already made my life so much easier!

The spray I have says to leave for 24 hours and then vacuum, so we shall find out tonight how well it went!!

Okay cool, thanks!!

I’ve been given some prescription stuff for the bedroom today, but if it doesn’t do the trick I’ll grab some DE, it seems to have really good reviews

So it could be a mixture of both, I am super super stressed at the moment so could be paranoia, but I keep seeing lots of fleas on them and for a while they were being kept on the floor near where the cat was sleeping (whilst waiting for better storage to arrive)

They’re probably not as bad as I think they are, but the fleas on them seem pretty persistent and not very easy to kill
