I got a new bed after I got rid of my cat. It came from my awful roommate's spare room. And now I have fleas. I just found three of the motherfuckers on me after two days of assuming they were gone. And there's another one. Maybe it's the fleas from my cat looking for food now that he's gone. But I'm leaning towards fleas from my roommates dog since my cat was outside for all of a week in 20 degree weather. Fuck this. I'm buying some flea killing stuff. I'll sleep on a bed of Raid if need be.

I bought a flea bomb but I'll look into that. All the topical flea killers had a bunch of skin contact warnings.

yea the awesome thing about DE is that its non-toxic (safe to eat). I've used it on bed bugs and nail fungus actually.
