The itchy and scratchy show

Yesterday I was like, what the…?! I was changing out the sofa covering and noticed the tell-tale signs of a major flea invasion. My indoor-only cats have been flea free for the past three years. They are certainly not flea-free now. In fact, they are covered in fleas. The invasion has happened quickly. When I left for Texas, not a cat was scratching and there was no sign of flea detritus when I groomed them. Dude. I spent two hours chasing cats around the apartment and managed to get Revolution on all but Puddin’, Tinoket, Shachori, and Tovi. I’ve got to buy some more today and those four are on my hit list. I may re-hit the fattest cats as the Revolution I had expired in January of this year (it should still be good but may be slightly less effective). I’ve got to wash all the cat beds and spread copious amount of flea powder around the apartment. Argh. I don’t know if the fleas migrated over from the apartment across the hall where there is a big dog or if the pet sitter brought them in or what but they are here and obviously reproducing at a rapid rate.
