FLEAS
Anyone out there with experience on fleas? We've recently discovered that the reason we keep getting bug bites all over our ankles and feet, despite the fact we don't spend much time outside, is that we have a small army of fleas in our carpet. (All right, so we've only seen ONE flea, but either that one flea has been really busy, or it has friends.)
We've called the landlady, so (I hope!) we don't need advice on killing the little guys, but if anyone has a good anti-itching cream to recommend, Steve (and his math) would appreciate it.
Oh, yeah, and one more note. If any of y'all would like to comment here but don't have a blog ID, feel free to drop us a line as "anonymous," just do us a favor and put your name or screen name at the end so we know who you are.

Hi guys, this is Carrie - Laura's old roommate. To get rid of fleas in your carpet, at night put in nightlights with a pan of soapy water on the floor below it. You'll get lots of fleas that way. It's worked for me. Or, put tea candles in the middle of the water, but I'm afraid of burning the house down.
