A realization...

A flea infestation in my house is like syphilis in the Prussian Army. Logically, you know there has to be a first case, but by the time you realize what's going on, EVERYONE has it!

Grace is shut in the shower in her flea shampoo foam, percolating. I'm off to rinse her and then shave and shampoo Rawdon. Hudson, evil kitten, has already been flea combed and has a shiny new collar. For some reason Glencora is completely flea-free. No idea how that happened.

If I had to guess as to the instigator of this whole deal, it'd be Grace. Orange dog has a facility for these things.

My sympathies. The fleas when we lived in Texas sometimes reminded me of a biblical plague. One nice thing about Colorado is that fleas are quite rare.

Ugh, I know how you feel. My best friend's house seems constantly infested with fleas, even after they bug bomb. I feel like they're some regenerative villain, the more you attack, the bigger it they get.
