As the 30th day approached I've been dithering back and forth about another month of frontline plus.  My dither was settled when I found a tiny dead flea on my pillow yesterday. So there are still some eggs around hatching. This flea was tiny, like a pinhead, and dead. So it likely hatched, jumped on a cat and died.

I treated them today.

Looking like last treatment is the last. NO dead fleas in six weeks, and of course it's cold now.  Tomorrow will be exactly 6 weeks since the last treatment so Mazy cat will still have some rudimentary protection at the vet tomorrow too.  I've never had a problem there (I mean bringing back fleas from the vet), but I always worry about it.
