We have escaped the fleas until now. * years in an apartment with 2 cats and only now do they show up. I will try Borax like you said. Hey Kat thanks for the advice.

I am going to pick up some Advantage and treat the 4 cats, then I'm going to buy some Borax, (if I still have the carpet then) and sprinkle the carpet, let it sit in for a few days, then vac up. The Borax kills the fleas and flea eggs in the rug, it smothers them and also prevents them from jumping onto an animal to try and escape the Borax. It does something to them so that they can't jump. So yeah, get some Borax if you have carpeting. It's in the laundry aisle because it's a detergent, sprinkle all over your carpets, let it sit in for 3 days, walk on your carpet as normal, and then vac up. The Borax is not dangerous to pets or people either. This is a very heavy flea season, the little buggers are out in force, so yeah, we have them too.
