Are Fleas FOREVER… ???

Trying to cheerfully keep my sunny side up while my home invasion keeps worsening.

In the wake of the possums being eliminated, starting last week, my house was crawling with FLEAS!!!! Online searching told the tale that the area where the possums were, is still riddled with their droppings/urine. That's what I've smelled all this time. And it's either drawing new fleas or those that were there, were content hanging with the possums- but now without the possums, are spreading out to find more "blood meals." Namely ME!

I thought I had BEDBUGS as my legs were eaten up and found 3 fleas in my bed one morning! Believe me… I keep it clean around here, too.

Learning my lesson with waiting to call the possum exterminator, I wasted no time on calling a bug exterminator. Another $200 and HORRIBLE toxins added to my home. I've been almost numb from breathing the stuff.

But the job is not done. A week later, fleas are still appearing. I'm going to have to hire someone to get in the crawlspace and clean it out or they will keep returning.
I can't fit in there myself.

And there's actually one more side story I haven't delved into yet... A thousand BATS in my OTHER neighbors house. That may or may not be tied in to the FLEAS here...

I swear I'm not making this up, this is a close to a never-ending, living nightmare as I've ever experienced. Thanks for listening. More detail later.
