Advantage Cat

will advantage kill all the fleas on my cat?
My cat has fleas and i was wondering if using advantage is enough to kill them all. I know fleas dont live on the cat so does that mean i have to bomb my house as well. I don’t know how that would work because my cat is a inside cat and i have no where else to put him if i try and bomb the house. so do you think if i use advantage on him it will take care of the problem?
First let me tell you that I own a pest control company and what I will recommend is the complete treatment that should help you completely get rid of the fleas. Advantage on your cat is only a small part of what you need to do to solve the problem.
First, treat the cat with Capstar. This is a pill that will kill all of the fleas that get on the cat for the first 24 hours. Second, use either frontline or advantage. I usually tell people to switch back and forth between the two because there are two different types of fleas that are common on cats and frontline works better on the one type and advantage works better on the other.
Once the cat has been treated, you must treat your home and yard. The best products to do this would include not only a killing agent, but also a sterilization agent. Inside, I would use Ultracide, if you can get it. (Many on line sites sell it.) Outside I would use Demon with Gentrol or Nylar. Treating your house and yard is just as important as treating the cat!
It is also very important to stay away from the grocery store or box store products like Zodiac or Hartz. Many of these products can cause severe allergic reactions in animals.

It is important to protect your pet against fleas and ticks. One way to do this is to apply flea treatment products that are available in the market. However you have to keep in mind that flea control products alone won’t solve the problem. You have to keep your environment clean by vacuuming your rugs and using yard sprays.
