Anyone else fighting fleas at this time of year?

I am having a helluva time here, but I managed to get them somewhat under control. I have 1 dog and 3 cats, and they are going through the most terrible I have seen in years. I just moved into this house near the woods, and there is a lot of tall grass. I let my pets roam as they wish, but here lately I have quarantined them to the house.

What are your best (and least expensive) tips?

I have bathed them all with some good flea - tick shampoo, and powdered them for longer lasting effectiveness.
I even mopped the floors with the shampoo and powdered the furniture and cracks in the hardwood floors.

I was told to use bleach, but wasn't sure what it would do to the hardwood floors, so I haven't tried it.


What do you do to take control of the situation?
