Seriously. There are fleas all over my room, and I have no idea how to get rid of them. I keep finding them on me, and I keep killing them, but they just keep coming. I threw all my blankets and sheets into the washer on hot, so hopefully that will help (though I kinda doubt it). Aside from hiring an exterminator, how can I get rid of them?

(And no remarks about the irony!)

Bug Bomb...

yeah, nuke it

Do you have stairs in your house?

Nearly *all* of my electronic gizmos are down there (including my guitars and recording gear). Will it be OK to leave it?

I would say probably, but I wouldn't trust me if I were you...

Try getting a fogger. Turn on and evacuate immediately.

I would first move any equipment that you can carry to another room. cover what's left with a drop cloth, newspaper, or garbage bag and you should be fine.

Old aunts used to come up to me at weddings, poking me in the ribs and cackling, telling me, "You're next." They stopped after I started doing the same thing to them at funerals.

Visit the vet methinks.

Have you considered taking medication for this problem!

I don't think medication would get rid of the fleas in my room.

Maybe I could get a flea collar to keep them off me, though.

Oh the irony! (well, you did ask for it. sorta.)

Bugbomb--the electronics SHOULD be fine (they were when I bombed)

------------------
There is no signature

Yeah, the time I did it, I just covered my computer and stuff with bed sheets before setting it off. Note, find somewhere else to sleep for couple of days...

Try not, do; or do not.

I say we take off and nuke the site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

*shakes head*
Uh? Sorry, you lost me for a second there.

Well, considering the fleas might be hiding IN the electronics, I say you bomb the whole place and hope for the best. *Remembers the spider topic, and shudders*

I thought fleas was more of a cat thing. Ticks seem to be the common problem with dogs.

Fleas are a warm-blooded-animal thing. Even birds get fleas.
