Today, I learned how my cat's flea medicine works. Instead of killing the fleas, it just makes the fleas move off of the animal. The good news is my cat no longer has fleas. The bad news is, the fleas moved into my bed. FML

Wild Nights Out
Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I put a collar on my dog to get rid of his fleas. Good news? He doesn't have fleas anymore. Bad news? They've moved onto the rest of my family. FML
Today, the abandoned cat that I took in for the night and during bad weather seems to have spread fleas around my house. They're everywhere. FML
Today, after weeks of wondering if my cat has a fetish for licking my bed covers, I finally witnessed him licking up an ant off of the covers. Turns out that my bed is infested with ants. FML
Today, I discovered that my bed has a flea infestation. I discovered it after sleeping naked in it for about an hour. FML
Today, I let my new cat sleep in bed with me. It was cute until she wiped a tapeworm onto my arm. FML
Today, my neighbor brought home a box of kittens he found in the park. Instead of calling animal control, he decided to keep them. Besides the incessant meowing throughout the day and night, a massive horde of fleas decided to migrate through his light sockets and into my nice clean apartment. FML
Today, I woke up to something crawling on my leg. Thinking it might be a spider, I jumped out frantically to check. The good news: it's not a spider. The bad news: it's a bedbug. My apartment was just treated for them. FML
Today, I spent $50 buying flea bombs so not only my dogs, but my son could relax a little in my home instead of fighting off those tiny little circus bastards. Today, I got in my car and the fleas attacked me mercilessly until I got to work. FML
Today, after encouraging my cat to try his new cat bed all day with no success, I attempted to gently place him in it. Instead, he managed to fear-spray me in the face. Like a skunk. I didn't even know cats could do that. FML
Today, I found out that people can get ringworm from cats. I found out because I have ringworm. I don't have a cat. Then I remembered I helped a friend move about two weeks ago, and spent the night sharing a bed with her cat. That's the last time I ever help her move. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I think you need to find a different flea medicine for your cat. And maybe you should buy yourself a flea collar.

they'll die quickly from the lack of blood - any medicine that killed the fleas immediately would also have significant danger of killing you cat pretty quickly too (why most vets only sell Advantage). And regardless of what flea meds you use, you were going to have to wash your bedding and vaccuum the floor anyway so no biggie. Plus human blood kills fleas so any that bit you are dead by now

Fleas suck. Tick are a small manifestation of Satan. Wash your bedding. Vacuum your carpet. Get over it. Though i do feel bad for you.

Get a flea collar for the cat. Always worked for the alley cat that adopted me. Not sure how you should fix your flea problem other than washing all your bedding and clothes and hope for the best.

That sucks! I kind of know the feeling though. A couple of summers ago, my uncles dog got fleas but we look after her while he's away at work so we had her quite a lot this one summer. We also have a cat, and he ended up getting fleas too. Thing is, my cat loved lying beside me while I was on the PC on the rug, and the fleas were everywhere though luckily it was a light coloured rug and we had laminate so they were easy to see. Not so easy to get rid of though. Easy enough to get rid on the cat, not so easy elsewhere! Well, since I sat at the computer some of the fleas must've got onto me, and without me knowing I later found out a few had decided to move into my bed. So every now and then I'd find these little fleas jumping and they were damn hard to get rid of! And just ew...it's horrible knowing they're in your bed! Hope you get it sorted soon though Xx
