I found fleas on both cats yesterday. Totally indoor cats. I was petting Mac and saw something move in his eyebrow. I checked all over him but couldnt see anything (hes black with light gray underneath). So I checked Mia, starting in the same place (her eyebrow area). I saw movement again. It jumped when I tried to get it off..
When I lived in the upstairs apt ( I moved to a down stairs apt, same building, after my stroke in July) I never thought about them sitting in the windows like upstairs. I'm sure thats how they have gotten the fleas though. I dont get my SSDI check until Wednesday so I cant even start treatment until then as I dont even have a penny until then. I am on a VERY limited budget due to being on SS disability. I already am cutting it tight this month due to getting Mac nuetered. Treatment is going to be a real srtetch. I cant delay Macs nueter though as he will be 5 months the middle of the month. I have had to treat for fleas a few years ago so I understand how to do it but wonder if anyone has any money saving tricks that work. Also, which works best, Advantage or Frontline. Your experiance with either or both would be appretiated. I will be going to the city (70 miles from where I live which is a rural community of 1,900) on Wednesday to get supplies for the month. I will be able to visit a Pet Supplies Plus and a Petco so I need the advice on what to get while there that works but will save money too. I am so overwhelmed right now thinking about how to get by this month but you got to do what you got to do!
Thanks!!!
