Guest guest Posted December 2, 2004 Report Share Posted December 2, 2004 Dawn, Putting a Flea Collar in the Vacuum Bag is an Old fashioned thing that I learned from my Great-Grandma...... She thought that it was funny when the vets finally started telling everyone else about it....lol. She always did get laughs out of stuff that doctors started telling people about that her generation already knew about..... If you put baking soda in your vacuum cleaner bag, it will kill any animal odors that you vacuum up........or you can also put like baby powder in it or carpet powder in it too and have a fresh smell in it all the time. I really feel for your furry babies........we had fleas in our house really bad in August/September and had to bomb the house 3 times before we even got half of them gone! I swear, we'd bomb the house and they'd triple instead of die! grrrrrrrr. It ended up taking 5 times of bombing before we could finally get rid of all of the fleas in the house. OH! Another little trick to do to get rid of some that hides when the bombs go off..... At night when you go to bed, turn your TV on to a channel that is white and fuzzy (nothing on it) and leave it on all night. Then, on the floor in front of it, put a WHITE Bowl filled with water and DAWN DISH SOAP down and leave it on the floor all night (make sure the cat and dog are shut up in a different area)....and you will be Surprised about how many fleas you'll find floating in that bowl in the morning when you wake up!!!!!! Good luck......and poor Holly.......she'll freeze her poor little knee's off going outside without any fur just to go potty! Tonia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
