I agree – We have always used frontline or frontline plus on our dog and cats. It always works – the even have it for kittens and puppies. You can get it from your vet or online. We don’t use it during the winter however because it is too cold for fleas where we live.
It works great for ticks too!

Frontline is a great flea/tick killer. It kills all stages of flea development and up to 4 different types of ticks. It’s waterproof for an entire month, which is great for your cat or dog (because my dog hates to get baths, and on top of that, sit still for anything).

I actually got the best results from using advantage. For 5 cats fleas became a problem but it cleared them up.

there is a new one, available at your vet’s office. It is called REVOLUTION. I have been breeding dogs for 38 years. REVOLUTION is the best product I have seen.
Revolution is the newest product that provides complete parasite protection. Revolution is a topical liquid medication which is used for flea prevention, heartworm prevention, and prevention and control of ear mites, sarcoptic mange, and American dog ticks. It is used once a month and is applied conveniently at one spot on the skin. It can be used for dogs and cats 6 weeks or older

Feline Flea Proofing
Add to the food for each adult cat:
1/2 level teaspoon brewer’s yeast
1/4 level teaspoon garlic powder
Flea Destroyer
Set up a plate of sudsy water with a light hovering over it. The fleas are attracted to this and drown themselves.
Flea Repellent (for cats)
1/8 teaspoon tamari soy sauce
1 crushed whole clove
1/8 teaspoon water
1 fresh garlic clove
Marinate the garlic in the liquid for about 10 minutes and then remove it.
Add 1/16 teaspoon soy liquid to each 1/2 cup cat food. Use this repellent immediately.
Flea Repellent Pillows
These pillows are for dogs.
Source: Glen Brook Farms Herbs and Such
2 parts pennyroyal
1 part thyme
1 part wormwood
Herbs may be cut or whole; construct a pillow for your pet to sleep on and then stuff it with the pennyroyal, thyme, wormwood. This makes a nice gift for those favorite dogs in your life. These herbs help to repel fleas naturally and without harsh chemicals.
Flea Repellent Sleep Pillows
For cats
2 parts sage or rosemary
1 part catnip
1 part chamomile
For dogs
2 parts pennyroyal
1 part thyme
1 part wormwood
Herbs may be used cut or whole. Mix enough to stuff a 2-foot square pillow for a cat or a 3-foot square (or larger) pillow for a dog. Sew the pillowcase out of a tough, washable fabric such as denim.
Herbal Flea Powder
Use herbs in powdered form only.
2 ounces pennyroyal (use sage or rosemary for cats)
1 ounce rosemary
1 ounce wormwood
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Mix and store in a covered container. Use as often as any flea powder and rub into skin.
DO NOT LET POWDER GET INTO PET’S EYES.
Herbal Flea Powder
1 part eucalyptus powder
1 part pennyroyal powder (use sage or rosemary for cats)
1 part fennel powder
1 part yellow dock powder
Combine all ingredients in a shaker top jar and shake to mix.
Apply to your pet’s fur by brushing backward with your hand or comb and sprinkling the powder into the roots of the hairs. Concentrate on the neck, back, and belly. Use just enough to add a little odor to the hairs.
For severe flea infestations, treat daily; otherwise, use two or three times a week.
