Someone listed on here to use the Borax laundry soap. You can sprinkle it on the carpet and leave it on for a day I think and then vacuum it up. I'm not quite sure how long you leave it on the carpet but it is suppose to take care of the fleas. I have yet to try this out. As for fleas on your pets, I often bathe them with flea shampoo and sometimes use the flea drops on them. My neighbor recently tried this flea pill on her little dog and it works great in getting rid of the fleas on her. The only thing is this flea pill is very expensive, depending on your weight of the dog it can range for $89. to over $100. for 6 monthly pills. And you have to have a prescription from the vet for this if ordering it from a company like Petmeds. The name of it is Comfortis.

My house is entirely under ceramic tiles.

I'd love suggestions for eradicating fleas in a hot climate, like ours.
