How to kill fleas

Best Flea Killer

Apparently, the best killer of fleas is the common vacuum cleaner. Wow, that's really good in terms of making sure your house doesn't have fleas living in it. However, I know my mother spends a fair amount on flea control for our cats. It's a fluid drip that we put on the back of the neck for each of the cat that suppose to disrupt the bleeding cycle of fleas and that it lasts for about 1 month.

I wonder if this means it would be more effective to use the vacuum cleaner on the cats to control the fleas. However, the key problem with this, as every cat owner knows, is the inherent danger of trying to hold a cat still when near a turned on vacuum cleaner. Whatever you save in flea powders or fluids you will make up in emergency room visits due to tooth and claw.
