Apparently no other product can kill fleas in some state of their development cycle, but steam can burst their shell. I am taking a heavy class load and have no time for this. I need something FAST, EASY, that gets steam to temps greater than 140 degrees (needed to kill fleas). I have hardwood floors so I want one that does not drench the floor. Since I have animals I would like the cleaning aspect as well…like if I am going to spend the money and have an appliance cluttering up, I would want it to be able to clean grout too. I am not expecting it to clean everything in my house, just floors. Carpets are a don’t care…I have throw rugs and throw them in the wash. I do not want to pre-mop or vacuum. I want one product to do it all. I am not very picky but it has to be hot to kill fleas and it has to do at least a fair job of cleaning so I don’t have to do it twice. I don’t want to spend over 0. And it should be light weight (or it won’t be easy). I don’t think I ‘d mind refilling it partway in order to keep the unit light. The right product might turn me from an indifferent housekeeper into a clean freak. Thanks for any help!
I bombed, it did no good. Only steam can kill fleas in all stages of growth. I guess I will premise spray to kill the adults, then steam to kill everything else.

Well I Know that my landlord has had some problems before paying people there security deposite well only one person because they came to the house asking for him and we got talking. Any way there’s someone differen’t taking care of the house and security deposite but they sound like there charging a lot of things. First off they chraged me 65 dollars each additional day I was there which is what rick the owner told them to do. Now I stayed for two additional days past what I was supposed to. how ever I was there for a third day but I was out by like 7 in the morning can they charge me for that day and if they do should I say something? Now they wanted to steam clean the carpets I wanted to just do it myself with a rug doctor but the guy rick who owns the house didn’t want me to because water can get stuck under the carpet or something so I said fine figureing that would really be the only expense they would be charging me for. the cleaners were supposed to come the day I got out
but they called and told them not to come for what ever reason. but they are charging me for that I used to have a dog and rick the owner mentioned hireing someone to come in to get rid of any fleas or bugs or something like that how ever I haven’t had a dog for atleast 6 months and my dog didn’t have fleas or anything. Plus I know the people moving in after me and they have two dogs so one way or the other there’s going to be a dog living there. Now it sounds like they are doing repairs that I’m not sure what’s the problem. One wall in the master bedroom had a stain from my sheets on it I always use red sheets and they kind of left a mark on the wall. which probably could of just been washed off but they may have charged me for painting it and can they charge me for the whole room or just that wall? then on another wall there was two spot were the wall was scrapped a little like maybe 2 inches one spot and 2 inches another spot
then in the 2nd bathroom there was a stain on this cheap little counter not sure how it got there noticed it when I was moving everything out but can they charge me to replace the hole counter. one of the shades wouldn’t go up and down because I couldn’t find a place for it to go so I just had it hanging there but it had been like that since the first time I pulled the curtain down. it just wasn’t a problem with me. what can they legally charge me for I’m supposed to get my deposite back today but I don’t know what they are charging me for and I want to know what they can charge me for. Like there were termites in the house I blieve they were there when I moved in but don’t know for sure but is that my problem? any help? I live in california if that matters? sorry for so much any help
my deposite was for 1850 and they are making it sound like I might get 500 of it back

I’ve had four dogs…one reddish, one black and neither ever had fleas even though they respectively lived well into their mid-late teens. My two white dogs seem to attract fleas. Both dogs are treated monthly, and regularly groomed. They eat high quality food including supplements.The house and property is professionally treated for fleas. The home is cleaned with a steam vapor mop at high temp. Yet, I am always dealing with fleas. I cannot get completely rid of the fleas. Any suggestions?
Thanks for the answers…I have no carpet in the house..only white tile.

Is the 0 price tag ( or a day fee to rent) worth buying a steam carpet cleaner, and will it help get rid of the fleas that have plagued my house for months?
So what would be a good pesticide powder?
