Then today (my birthday, by the way), I noticed a tiny flea scurrying across her abdomen. I grabbed it, but it jumped away. I checked her all over for flea dirt or eggs and didn't see anything. But later I found another flea, a bigger one, running up her neck. I immediately bathed her with a flea and tick shampoo we had leftover from the summer (when Scout had that gross maggot infestation). I found one flea on her after that, dead. I washed her crate, her bedding, my bedding and her coat. I swept my floor with a vacuum broom and a regular broom. I bathed the cat just in case (although not with any of the flea/tick shampoo, as she's 18.5 years old and I'm worried about hurting her). Tomorrow my mother will vacuum our rug, the couch and chair and our one carpeted room (my brother's asleep now, so she can't). What else should I do? None of my pets have had fleas in... forever. I don't think she's infested; the earliest she could have gotten them is on Wednesday (but more likely got them yesterday at the seminar), and I haven't noticed excessive scratching or seen fleas on anything but her, and again, there's no flea dirt on her (it would be easy to see, as she's white). Should I go to the vet and buy some Frontline or something? How soon can I use it after bathing her in what's essentially insecticide? Hopefully one of you can help!

(No, nobody got bitten or scratched, although I got soaked when Patch jumped at me while trying to get out!)
