Retford's older property and later housing both support fleas. We find where they are breeding in your carpets and furniture and treat those areas.
Walks along the Chesterfield Canal and through the market town mean many Retford dogs meet other dogs on a regular basis, and fleas are passed on in just this way. Older town-centre property tends to have solid floors and layers of carpet, and later housing has fitted carpet and gardens that cats like. Both can become infested within weeks of a single flea coming indoors.
As a BPCA member, we follow recognised standards and explain what we are doing in plain terms. We inspect the places the animal rests, treat the carpets and soft furnishings, and tell you how to wash and vacuum in the days after. Your vet should treat the animal itself, ideally at the same time. Results depend on how many pupae remain and how well the advice is followed.
They sometimes arrive with them, particularly if they have lived outdoors or in kennels. Ask your vet to check and treat, and let us know if the house starts to show signs. Their bedding and any new bedding should be washed too.

Yes. Pets should be treated as well, and your vet can advise on suitable flea treatment alongside the home treatment.
