Dave, that indoor outdoor carpet has got to go :-)

Making me itch just thinking about it 😂

Need to wash all your curtains, bedding, seat covers and that rug. Yes, you need to take everything out and clean surfaces.

Hi Dave! Why haven’t you stripped the bed and take out as many items as you can. Including that fake grass

Diatomaceous earth food grade is safe for pets etc but gets the fleas. It works great. You can use it on Bella as well.

Put on white socks and sit in your van awhile. You’ll see them on the socks if you still have any.

Dave, a small light when it's dark , put a sticky pad under light. The light will attract them , and the sticky pad catches them. This worked in my daughters house.

What a sweet, precious , beautiful , little girlie. Those eyes are amazing. I just Love her sooooooo much. Your feirns, Louise

That astroturf is housing the fleas. With constant in & outs & dragging in kinds of elements… laminate flooring is a better choice & easier cleaning.

Flashbacks of the movie Caddy Shack when Bill Murray cleaned house with a leaf blower. 😄🤣😂😅

Bella looks good with short hair

Dave.....you can DIY that flea beacon. You need a shallow dish, like a pie plate or brownie pan, water, dish liquid, a small drinking glass and a small flash light that fits into the glass. Put water and a few drops of the dish liquid into the pan, swish it around to mix. Put the drinking glass in the pan. Turn on the flash light and put it into the drinking glass. The business end of the flash light should be at the bottom of the glass and ideally should kind of lean against it for the light to shine. Close the doors, and curtains because it works in the dark like the Flea Beacon.

My dog’s heartworm preventive pill also kills fleas. She was originally on Trifexis but is now on Simparica Trio which also kills ticks. In 12 years I’ve never had an issue with fleas.

@Dave's RV Life. I highly recommend Raid Flea Killer Plus Spray comes in a purple can (aerosol is best). Walmart's brand does NOT work!!! Raid Does ! You have to spray this daily on carpet to work on the fleas, and eggs. Fleas can lay up to 40 eggs daily so very important to spray daily. I got this spray from Amazon sometimes difficult to find it locally. I promise you that this product works ! Information on flea cycle online informs it can take up to 2 weeks to stop the cycle, but can take a lil longer. I have 4 cats between the flea spray, and flea control medication for pets fleas didn't stand a chance !

You can put out a small dish(I think I used a saucer) anyway put water in and a drop of dish soap. Set it in your van and put a small light right above it. The fleas will go to the light and into the water. Works great .

Chiming in with my opinion..lol. Good idea to keep her hair short. Even though your not crazy about chemicals, the pill from the vet for ticks and fleas always works and is safe.

That sweet Bella! I love her haircut! ❤

Had dogs all my life. I'm 63. Been a bad few years. But vacuum use the bug bomb that you put 1/4 cup water and drop the bomb in the water which starts a change reaction of heat and smoke. They work the best and the mist gets to every Crack and crevice and inside walls. Then vacuum again.

Aloha Dave, the vet has a flea and tick pill that will keep Bella flea and tick-free for about 6 months, we use it on our dogs and have no 0:00 problem, and the pill is not expensive, Hawaiʻi has flea and tick problems all year round, aloha from Hawaiʻi 🌺

Gave our cats and dogs Bravecto about three years ago. Haven't seen a flea since.

The 120v gnat / fly killers, with the ultraviovlet light and sticky pad work great. They only work at night, the gnats are attracted to the light and get sucked in. I have bought 3 of them. I have 2 in my house and one in my RV. They work, and no chemicals. about $35 on Amazon.

I had fleas one time. I went and got a dog flea collar, cut it up in pieces, put them in places I thought the fleas were, and put some in the vacuum cleaner bag. Vacuumed the next day and they were gone.

There is a product line called STEM, which is safe for pets and kids. I used all of their products. They really work well and safer than most of the stuff out there.

Dave, bombed my cottage today. I don’t have an animal but I think the opposum that live under my cottage must be the culprit. FEAS ugh

You should get Bella a Seresto flea/tick collar. They work! And they last up to eight months.

You could have put a small dish of Dawn dish liquid in the center and seen how many would be in the dish the next morning There is also a really good spray that I use on my dog's and it is called No Bite bu Durvet it has a growth inhibitor of the fleas and it kills adult fleas and fleas that I've already hatched Not telling you what to do just giving you another suggestion

Hi Dave . How about Nexgard for fleas and ticks. It’s an investable given monthly. Works great . Kills ticks on dogs too. Agree that long grass like carpet is a culprit too

I live in Northern Nevada and we don't have fleas above 4000 ft but this year everybody is complaining about fleas this year.

Can't remember the name of it but there is a flea collar you can buy. It's about $80 dollars last 8 months and its well worth it. I stopped giving my dog the pill after trying it.

Trouble is that the sprays don't kill the eggs, it has to be repeated. Ozone generators work but there are safety protocols that need to be carefully followed.

Nexgard is an ingestable chewy for dogs .

Diatomaceous earth and Bravecto, research them both to feel secure in the choice. We're old dog owners and have probably tried everything (we live in a flea heaven climate), told Ausia about the dangers of tea tree oil recently (we tried that years ago). We have an old dog (15 in August) and Bravecto is the only thing that truly worked for her. The earth stuff is for the van, like I said, research what anyone tells you, Bella is to precious to take the word of strangers. Now back to your video...:) I'm exhausted just watching you clean, and still there are fleas!

lamp with water under neath - they have cake pan type tuperware for like 3 dollars at walmart they are nice for all kinds of van life but one of those with a lamp would drown em - soapy water.

Ya Dave fleas are terrible this year, don't know why..maybe the heat that week, who knows. But what your doing is great. Keeping up with them is all you can do.

Lovely to see a close up of Bella.

Table salt , sprinkle down and let for 2 to 3 days , I left for a week then vaccum up and discard vaccum into trash bag.

Tractor Supply carries most anything you'll need

I'm with you on not liking to use chemicals. I'll generally get environmental friendly treatments but if that fails I go to "the big guns" and resort to chemicals. Good luck with the war on fleas! You'll get there. Bella looks great in her summer cut!

Dave I used one of those little flat tea candles and set it on a paper plate full of dish detergent. In the dark. The light draws them into the plate and the dish detergent kills them. Works great.

The reason they like socks is cuz they're drawn to White. I bet that white van looks real good to them from about 3 Mi away

They have a all natural spray for dogs that is clove, and something else i just cant remember look it up you might be able to make it yourself i wish i could remember

Good girl Bella ❤

I had a flea infestation last year. I used the lamp catcher gizmo (different brand) and it worked like magic. I have pilot lights in my house, so I couldn’t bomb. Good luck!

good vid on channel keep up the vlogs you do on channel thanks lee

Hey Dave.. If you spray something like Ortho home defense (it's pet friendly) to get rid of the Fleas. You have to do it again every day for 7 to 10 days. You also have to vacuum a few hours after every spray dries, to remove the larvae and eggs they lay when they die. Don't forget to empty the vacuum bag. Do all that after removing everything in the van. You also can empty the van and place a high intensity ultraviolet light in the front facing back with the doors closed except for the rear doors. Fleas don't like ultraviolet light and run from it. I've done both these remedies and they worked for me and my four fur babies. Remember, if you see one flea ,there's a thousand hiding in the dark. Good luck..

Poor Bella. She looks pretty. 😮 on the vacuum . Lol.

Adam’s Flea Spray Adam’s flea shampoo Adam’s Rug powder Work great!

Get k9 advantage for your dog that will stop flees

You may have to treat your campsite at the farm . Tractor supply or any Farm store should have stuff to do that . Just ask them. We treated the camp space grounds down at our ten acres . Just put it in a seed spreader and walked behind it . Of course we have to spray OFF on us if going around the property to check things out . Stay safe , have fun , give Bella a rub for me .

yrs ago I got a terrible flea problem from the neighbors cat. it was a nightmare.

Vacuum All around the baseboards Wash all the bedding/etc daily.

Up at the other property she probably laid in a deer bed that was full of fleas. Or some other animals bed.

Also spread 7 dust in the immediate yard.

what about under the carpet Dave?

Sprinkle Borax...works

Why wouldn't you take your bedding out and wash it? In hot water. Probably where they are living.

Hopefully you’ve been emptying the vacuum cleaner bag after each use so as to avoid recontamination. 🙀

its the eggs you have to worry about. try the precor stuff.

What brand of dog clippers did you use. She looks so good in short hair. Good job!

You're right. Bugs have been crazy this year. Maybe it's because of the mild winter.

I've tried all of the different stuff everyone has mentioned here in the comments.... When I had a problem like this was to bomb like you are doing and get one of these Rx flea collars for my dog. Sorento. They are expensive but they flipping WORKED. Also the life cycle of the fleas is that you will need to bomb again😂 and clean real good in 2 weeks. Also make sure you are cleaning or throwing away any vacuum bags. If not they crawl right out of the vacuum and re-infest. I don't like chemicals and didn't usually put that stuff on my dog. But she got sick from the fleas and she was miserable. I had an expensive vet bill. Plus so much work trying to get them gone. I only used the Sorento that one Summer. Then we were good again.

Flea meds for puppy every month

If your vacuum is a bag one make sure to throw out the bags!

I use Seresto collars on both my dogs. You can wash them but she can get reinfested again. My vet suggested the Seresto

Permethrin sfr 36.8, its what the pros use. For cleaning, since you don't want chemicals. Get a McCulloch Steamer. The steam will disinfect and kill. So, after you steam, then treat with permethrin sfr 36.8, run an ozone machine. After all that nothing living will be left. Obviously stay out when the ozone machine is running, about an hour. BTW I use it in my house and yard. I have no crawling bugs and no flies, bees gnats, nada. Yard is great, I can see the bugs in all the neighbors' yards, but not mine. I do the attack monthly in the yard for pest free, in a confined area it'll last a few months.

GOOD MORNING BEST Dave Bella KZfaq CANADA ONTARIO VIDEO MISSISSAUGA TRANSIT 🇨🇦🇨🇦🍃🍃🍃🍀🍀🍀🐕

Diatomaceous Earth worked for me.

Dave that van is filthy plum filthy

Get rid of that shag flea trap carpet. Only vacuuming with a beater roller works. It kills the flea and the egg. But you’ll never get rid of them with that carpet

I just had an earwig infestation, they were coming up the sewer pipe and water hose and making their way into the RV, it was a battle to get rid of them

Last weekend, we went camping and the TICKS were horrible.

Bella looks so good with shorty hair❤

A droplight over a large short sided tray of water with a few drops of Dawn in it will also catch them overnight.

Growth regulant spray

Did Ross get any fleas in his unit

Sprinkle diatomaceous earth vac up after a week and resprinkle it for another week. I used bravecto chews with my Abby girl. Best bang for the buck...it says lasts 3 months but really lasted almost 6. She was on it her whole life. I lost her last April at 11. Her Frisbee catching heart failed.

What’s crazy is you don’t have to have a dog to have a flea infestation. My brother’s shop was overrun with them and they came from the deer or other animals. That’s all we could think of. He said they were jumping all over him.

Get Nexgard for flea and tick

Hope you get rid of them Dave.

I used 7 dust.

can u show rust`s rv

What a pain in the butt, they breed so fast and by the time you notice them they’re everywhere. It really got away from us once and we had to get these spray cans from the vet, the store brands didn’t work. You took the pets and people out spray the whole house and be gone for about three hours and it really worked great but they get used to products and you need to find a stronger poison. So toxic though, coats everything. Just a pain to deal with. Because we’ve had such a wet warm May and June there are tons of bugs this year, dug a little hole to plant a plant and it was just crawling with earwigs 🤢🫣ew ew ew , there were lots of Junebugs this year too. Hope it all goes well getting rid of the bugs. 🙋🏼‍♀️

Maybe you need to soak that green rug in a large tub in something.

I thought you. Were using the ones you set in there for 24 hr.

🤞🏻🤞🏻

🤞🏻👍🏻

7 dust will work, guarantee

Shares to collar. Can always take off. Don't buy Wal-Mart cheap one.

Responsible people put flea and tick medicine from their VET on their dogs! Surely she is never taken to a VET.

Diatomaceous earth and a Seresto collar for the baby girl.

camp+deer=fleas

It seems like bugs and Bees are Terrible this Year.

Fleas generally only live 4-7 days without food. Close the doors & windows for a week. Don't use pesticides . Just let nature take care of it.

Do you have Bella on flea control medication.

The chewables worked for us. Drops and collars never have.

🐾❤️❤️

Back in the day when we had a dog we always gave it a bath with 1 cup of kerosene in a tub of water, never had issues.

Change the flooring in the van completely

🤦🏻‍♀️😮‍💨🙏

Get rid of all carpet products
