:-) :I think you need the advice from someone else on this one...;-)
I would not use a flea bomb, Go to the pet store and get a flea trap that you 
plug into the wall (The one I saw while I was in NC was like the glade plug 
ins) But I could not find this one so I got the one that sits on the floor.
What it is is a light above a sticky paper, the fleas are attracted to the 
light and then jump on the the paper (a yellow color) and die there !
Or you can use a light beside an pie plate 1/2 full of water with a little 
dish soap in it.
I dont like the 2nd method, there is to big a chance that you or a bird could 
step in to it !
the 1st way I like better due to the fact you set it up and dont have to 
worry about it, At my girl friends (the one I bought the trap for) you could 
see the fleas jum off the dog's and into the trap !
The trap cost about $25 and came with 2 or 3 pads in it.
I hope this has helped !!!!
Oh by the way I hope to have some new babies in the near future, Both Rockie 
and Fancy has gone to rost  and I cought them in the act !!!
I hope to have feather good news in the next couple of weeks.. :)
