Fleas live 90% of their life cycle OFF the host animal. That means they can be ALL OVER your house. And once that happens they can be quite happy all winter in your nice heated environment. I've always fallen back on dusting the entire house. It may be a little toxic for everyone, but it's highly effective against the little beasties. Within a couple of weeks you've vacuumed up most if not all of the dust, and all the six legged bloodsuckers.
