How do I get rid of these Zombie fleas?
I have only lived in this apt for two weeks. It has been sprayed three times and two foggers were set off in to two carpeted rooms. Most of this apartment has vinyl floors. I have vacuumed and washed and vacuumed some more. They just won’t die! Is this hopeless?
I hope this may help you…
Foggers and sprays only kill the living fleas, not their eggs. You can vacuum really good and then throw the vacuum bag out in a sealed trash bag. Then, shampoo your carpets with HOT water and white vinegar. Treat any animals you have in the house with 30 day treatments. Like, Frontline.
They also love dark places (under beds, couches, chairs, etc.) so make sure you vacuum and shampoo those places just as good.
Also, mention to your landlord that you still have them and complain!
We, a long time ago, bought a house that was infested after foggers and sprays we thought they were gone…ha! They were still there so we contacted an exterminator and he told me this helpful info. He then sprayed and never had a problem after that.
Good luck~ They are nasty vermits!
It takes a bit for the fleas to all die. the first spray kills the adult fleas, the second should kill the ones that just hatched. I had that problem once and it took about three weeks for them to be gone. It also might be your neighbors fleas coming to visit you. Do you have pets? They also need treatment. Sometimes shaking salt (regular table salt) all over the carpets, letting it sit for a day then vacuming and then repeat it helps. Fleas are tough but they will eventually die.
You should talk to the land lord!!! That sounds in healthy and very much like a health hazard!!!
