Hi there! I am new to the forum but not new to the life of owning cats. My husband and I have 2 cats 1 longhair male and 1 shorthair female both are fixed. Hoping to get some ideas on what people on here would usr for flea control. We just discovered a few fleas on both cats but as the saying goes a few really means a lot you just dont see yet. Open to ideas but cannot flea bath or dip them ourselves for the male has all his claws and is very nasty when it comes to baths or crateing him for vet trips and the female has back claws and knows how to use them LOL! Hope to hear some ideas thanks

Hi and welcome to CW. There is lots of great information here and plenty of friendly cat lovers with advice on all sorts of things.
I suggest you use one of the "spot-on" flea treatments for your cats and you can also get *flea bombs* to set off inside your home (but you remove the cats to a safe place first) and follow the instructions on the can.

Hi and welcome to cat world.
I use "revolution" which is a spot on flea control which is also a wormer and mite control as well. Speak to your vet about a suitable product. You don't have to bath cats anymore for fleas. Good luck.

Hello! 
Welcome to CW
Do your cats go outside? Apparently outdoor cats are more prone to fleas than indoor cats.
I think a spot on treatment would be best. I have used this on my boys before and you can just put a drop at the back of their neck.
Good luck! Hope we get to see pics of your precious ones soon!
