Help should I buy an inflatable bed or keep my sofa? My sofa is flea tick infested help?

[Sugar100]

I have no pets. But my lanlord has pets. I live in a studio and my studio is in her backyard.

I have bites itchy on my feet and legs. I see Tiny fleas jumping on my hands/body. My sofa I bought it a year and half ago but was used. I can’t buy a new sofa as I plan move out in few months. Should I throw away this sofa this weekend and buy a queen inflatable Bed with head rest that’s about $100? Or keep the sofa and buy a tick flea spray for couches/carpet?

[hahahmm]

Air mattresses won't solve your problem & they suck for long term because they are constantly losing air and you have to re-inflate them. Sometimes multiple times in a single night depending on how firm you like the bed to be.

For fleas.. I would bomb that place like someone else said. But it probably will only help for 2-3 days at a time. If Ortho Home Defense works on fleas (not sure, check)... you can spray all all along the edge of the rooms & door frames. That keeps other bugs out 100%.

Document your bites with pics & write official letter complaint to the landlord... you need documentation. Then if you decide to go to court later it's easier.

Flea bomb the place and go from there. Or move. That’s disgusting, tell her to take care of her animals.

I said I was moving in new months. Do I go trash my sofa and buy an inflatable bed or keep sofa and just buy a flea spray for the sofa?

[Sugar100]

Few months**

[Sugar100]

I’ll just throw away my sofa cuz it’s very old and was used

[petitedollbabee]

Oh I see. Yeah best to just buy something new, get rid of the sofa.

[Sugar100]

I don’t need throw away my rig and blankets tho right? My blankets were daily on the bed

[Sugar100]

Sofa**

[petitedollbabee]

Nah you don’t need to throw those out. Just get rid of the fleas with a flea bomb or spray or whatever, and give it a thorough wash afterwards.

[Sugar100]

And I keep the sofa or throw away the sofa?

[petitedollbabee]

Throw it away…

[Sugar100]

Ok I’ll do that tomrow night

[Sugar100]

I worry that my new inflatable mattress will also have fleas.. I saw flea on the floor and one in my leg. But maybe they r coming from the sofa jumping on the floor

[Sugar100]

I also have an air vent open and above me there’s an attic and the owenrs dogs all live there 4 of them.

[petitedollbabee]

Lucky you’re moving in a few months. I would recommend that you still flea bomb your place, simply getting rid of the sofa won’t solve the flea infestation. Flea bombing won’t be a permanent fix if you’re living directly underneath the dogs, especially with the air vent being open, but maybe a flea bomb once a month until you move out would be worthwhile.

Throw away the sofa and get flea spray asap

[Sugar100]

I have to sleep on it tonight tho, can’t buy an inflatable bed til Friday pay day

[Sugar100]

Im paranoid what if there’s fleas in my hair 😭😭😭😭

[chicken_nugget24]

The floor would probably be better tbh

[Sugar100]

Is it cuz the sofa is used and old?

[chicken_nugget24]

Well yeah and I'd coverd in fleas lmao

[Sugar100]

my hair and feet r itchy I can’t sleep

[Sugar100]

2 more days and I’m throwing this shit in the trash

[Sugar100]

Also the owner has dogs maybe it’s them too

[Sugar100]

Shud I throw away my rug too? That was under the sofa?

[chicken_nugget24]

Sleep on floor. Get flea spray. Suggest to your owner about getting flea stuff for dogs asap

[Sugar100]

Where do I use the flea spray? Cuz I’m gunna just throw away the sofa in 2 days.

[Sugar100]

I already set up my bed guna sleep on the sofa tonight and tomrow wish me luck lol

[Sugar100]

The owner will get offended if I say to use flea spray. I had mold issue before then fly infestation

[Sugar100]

Moving out in few months have no money yet to move sooner

[Sugar100]

Do I throw away my rug too yes or no?

[Sugar100]

I jsut washed my blankets too 😭😭😭😭

[chicken_nugget24]
