Someone brought fleas into my house! I have never had a flea in the three years I have owned this home. I don't know what to do about fleas cause I have babies. Is there anything safe to use for ferrets and babies to get rid of fleas? The problem is getting bad fast. It started with a few and now only a week later they seem to be everywhere! My poor ferret is scratching and going mad and the babies are getting eaten too. I tried giving the ferret a bath and going over him with a fine toothed comb, that didn't work at all. In fact I think fleas liked him clean and made it worse (I don't usually wash him at all). Someone write directly to me please? I don't have a lot of time these days due to the new babies and the time left over is for ferret love. Thank you all always, Kathy Smith [Posted in FML issue 2270]
