Question : Can my pets get fleas when it ' s still cold outside ? Answer : It ' s a myth that flea season is ever over . Fleas don ' t really have their own season . If a flea has a warm body to ride on and a good blood meal , he will live long enough to produce thousands of little fleas . Cold weather doesn ' t kill a flea unless it ' s in the grass when it freezes . When the weather is changing and those nasty little parasites sense the change , they frantically jump on any furbearing host . People , dogs , cats , rabbits , and squirrels ... fleas don ' t care who they hitch a ride on , as long as the body is warm . If you find a flea on one of your pets , more than likely , they all have fleas . So , how do you get rid of fleas ? The only way to get rid of them is to treat your animals , the yard , and your house all at the same time . Treat your yard at least two times a year . In the spring , when you fertilize and use weed control on your yard , use a pelletized flea and tick product on the grass , as well . This should also be reapplied in the fall . The only way to avoid a flea problem is to put your pet on a flea prevention program that not only kills fleas when they bite , but also repels them . If you already have an infestation , ask your groomer or veterinarian for product recommendations .
