Default Household flea treatment safe for reps?

I breed dogs occassionally as well as my reps and show them but today I found a neighbours cat in my house and it was covered in fleas yuck.

Now my own cats and dogs are on Frontline spot on treatment every mth so anything landing on them will die but that won't stop the hitch hikers from next door infesting my house.

Help I need to know wot I can use to treat the house before I am infested with flea's that is safe for the reps?

Your vet should be able to sell you something that's safe.

**Edit** What dogs do you breed?

Don't use the flea spray near your reps whatever you do.

I cant imagine that the fleas will actually be interested in the reps as they will not really be warm enough... but I would be inclined to remove the snakes and give the viv's a good disinfectant clean to kill of any juvenile fleas that might be breeding in the warmth of the viv.

Schipperkes a small belgian barge dog with huge attitude lol.

See below my 3 males with GB/Am/Int'l champ father in the centre whislt the dog to his right is a son who's GB/NZ cham and res best dog at Crufts 04 and the star of the day his other son who's a GB Ch taking BOB CRufts 04 & 06.


Next is my boy who was the first tailed schipperke to win a class at Crufts in breed history - was made all the better that he was a coloured boy too.


Finally some of his latest children born last summer which are in the ring now so no more breeding till 08 yeahhh - hate breeding lol.
