2. Wash your bedding ASAP

Once you spot fleas, wash all bedding, including yours, your pet's, and any couch covers or curtains. A strong detergent can boost your chances of eliminating fleas. This step is crucial as fleas can lay eggs in bedding, which can lead to a recurring infestation. Ensure you use hot water and a high heat setting in the dryer to effectively kill all stages of fleas.
