Hi, Saturday we took our 2 dogs to the vet. While we were waiting we noticed (to our horror) a few fleas on one of the dogs. So after our vet scared the crap out of us we came home and found your site. We cleaned the ENTIRE house. Spreading DE on all carpeted surfaces, under beds, couches, everywhere. We then vacuumed everything and washed all bedding. I have put a dehumidifier at ground zero (our room) along with a flea trap, and I have a Eden pure heater running in there full blast. I have not been able to get the room temp over 90 degrees yet, but the humidity is under 30 percent. My wife and I are as itchy as can be. Not from bites but I think it it part mental and part the dryness of our room. I have combed the dogs twice a day since then. The first day I found about 5 adults on one dog and 6 on the other. Then yesterday I only found babies and today no fleas on the dogs. All bedding has been washed and I vacuum twice a day. If I see a flea in an area I vacuum. Our flea trap caught 3 the first night and two last night. How are we doing? would this be considered a major infestation.
