Our cat Athena is a fluffy girl and we just found a flea on her, we removed it and crushed it but now my girlfriend is freaking out and her skin is squirming thinking the whole house could be infested. I’m of the opinion that we’ve caught it early and we should just check her usual sleeping spots as well as get a flea comb but my girl is damn near ready to buy a steam cleaner for the rug.

Idk, what do you guys think? How should we handle this?

    I’d go by the vet and pick up some NexGard for kitty and vacuum any rugs/carpet/pet sleeping areas periodically for the next week or two.

    Even when I took in a foster that got the house infested, that took care of it.

    Edit: Fixed NexGard spelling.
