Hi there.....my cat is infested with fleas. I used Pestigon 15 days ago and cleaned and steamed my whole house before using Acclaim flea spray. My problem is that he is still jumping with fleas even with combing him 2-3 times a day. Is this normal? Oh and just to add insult to injury he is an indoor cat.

It's been a long time since I had to deal with fleas (indoor cats as well). Unfortunately you can pick them up and transfer them so easily.
Have you used anything on your cat (Advantage? Frontline?). You really need to put a topical ointment on him and not just combing. Because he is indoors you won't need a full dosage, you can halve it but make sure it is for feline use and not strictly canine.
Getting them out of your house will take a bit more work as I recall. I think I finally declared my house "flea free" after about 6 weeks. The cats were fine but my husband and I were constantly being bitten.
