You deserve it for not doing your research. Sorry, but if you're going to give any medicine to your pets or especially yourself, you really should know what it does.

LOL, I read this on www.FWhyMe.com last week

#8, the cat adopted u, or u adopted the cat? Anyways, op, at least the fleas didnt carry a fatal plague and transferred it to u. But still FYL

YDI because this is why they recommend you flea-bomb your house at the same time as de-fleaing the animals

Okay, seriously: Not all flea medicine kills fleas directly, some (Program, Interceptor) act as a type of flea birth control. Those adult fleas will continue to live but not be able to produce viable offspring. Also, human blood does NOT kill fleas, that is stupid. And, flea meds other than the OTC crap you get at Walmart are NOT toxic to cats even at high doses, so just because they kill fleas doesn't mean they will "kill your cat". Fleas can feed on any mammals, and also birds and rodents, depending on the type of flea. Also, your problem is MOST likely that your house is infested: Even if you do kill off all the adult fleas, new ones will hatch out of your carpeting and such in about 2 weeks, NOT 3 days-- there is NOTHING you can do to kill pupae, so the best thing to do is to sort of use your pet as a "flea vacuum" -- keep using the preventatives and they will eventually kill all the fleas off. In the mean time, clean your bedding AND the cat's bedding. Bombs and things don't really work because of the pupae, which they will not kill. PS- Flea collars really are crap. Proper application of preventatives means waiting at least 3-4 days before/after shampooing the pet- flea meds are spread in the oil on the skin, so they are LESS effective on a clean animal, especially one cleaned with flea shampoo. Never use a flea shampoo after you've put on your preventative. If you really are infested, talk to your vet about applying preventative (real preventative, NEVER that Adams crap you can get over the counter, which is highly toxic to cats) every 3 weeks. Also ask about Capstar, which does kill adult fleas within 24 hours. PPS- All of this is from a veterinary parasitology class, so don't even try it.

You might want to try something new.

So just use it on yourself too for a week or two problem solved

Nasty. My cat got fleas once and they got all over the place. Actually I should post an FML or two about that.
