Thill still jump on for a free ride...lol

but they will die if the dogs are treated, and they will bite you to death in the meantime

Treat your house with a house hold flea spary aswell, that way they cannot hide out in the skirting boards, awaiting your dogs flea treatment to run out

Can not add to CALA's top advice, except that the top flea culprit is in fact the hedgehog they are even more common than the dog flea which comes in at no/3 or something!
Sorry just some usless information for you there! Hope you are rid of them soon, I have started to feel itchy just reading your post!
