Make a flea spray with your own hands

Mix equal portions of water and white vinegar in a spray bottle and then add a few drops of laundry soap. Shake the bottle well and spray the solution on furniture, pet bedding, and other places where fleas can hide. The vinegar helps repel fleas, and the soap helps kill them.

Use salt

Sprinkle carpets with table or sea salt, paying special attention to the areas with the most fleas. Leave it on for a day or two and then vacuum it up. Salt acts as a dehydrator, which helps to dry and kill fleas.

Take care of your pets regularly

It is important to bathe and groom your pets regularly to kill fleas, their eggs, and flea dirt. In addition, use a flea comb to thoroughly comb your pet's fur. If necessary, consult your veterinarian for safe and effective flea treatments for your pets.
