How I handled these critters may help: Take a large flat pan, planter pot base, or large very swallow bowl that is about 18" in diameter or square and place in the middle of the kitchen floor. It needs to hold water, about an inch deep will work. Once the water is in the pan put a squirt of dish washing liquid in the water to break the surface tension. Hang a night light about 12 to 15 inches above the pan. The night light needs a pyramid-shaped shade made from aluminum foil and coat hangers to cut down on the amount of light in the room and so that when the fleas jump toward the light they will hit the shade and fall into the water where they will die. Without the dish washing liquid in the water, the fleas can jump across the water's surface. The shade edge needs to be about three or four inches above the pan and the diameter about two to three inches larger than the pan. Open all room doors and make sure all other lights are off. You want the fleas to be drawn to the night light, not another light source. Results are amazing. Can be left in place until you see all of those critters are dead.
