Rachel Adams answered question 7/9/2007 My House Is Infested With Fleas And I Cannot Get Rid Of Them No Matter What I Try! Is There Anything I Can Do? Putting moth balls or flakes into vacuum cleaner bag, as you vacuum the fleas, and eggs that are picked up will suffocate in the bag. I keep moth balls in my vacuum cleaner year round and it works with ants and any other bugs.
