Hello - I'm impressed by your determination and refer the an old English proverb, of looking for a needle in a haystack. Flea eggs are extremely tiny and it must be virtually impossible to physically identify and remove every last one from your cats. I suspect that there are flea eggs being laid somewhere eg on the cats or soft furnishings, which can and do make more fleas within as short a time as two days. Eggs can survive away from the pet and can lie dormant for some time. Therefore, thorough hoovering is reccommended on a daily basis and chemical flea treatments are generally needed. Most flea strategies combat more than one stage of the flea lifecycle, and need to be reapplied consistently, in order to remain effective. We strongly reccomnend talking to your nurse about the best way to combat fleas in your own, specific household.
