I have friend who swears by the Indorex spray so nice to see it recommended here too. Would love to hear about natural options though!!

Yeah first time buying it and not used it yet. Going to do a big house clean and spray next week so I'll let you know. But then as we have no fleas I can't really say if it works unless I suddenly get loads, then I know it doesn't!?!? Do you have any product names for natural ones?

I have heard a few old wives tales like cedar wood can help repel / kill fleas as it affects how they breath. Have no idea if they are true hence the ask here as I was hoping other people will know more. I was thinking along these line i.e natural things which can be used around the house which help.
As for commercial products, I know their used to be a product called Biospotix and within range their was a household spray but have never used it (its very expensive compared with the better quality chemical ones), though have considered trying it a few times!!

I would rather natural products as I know that commercial products/sprays, etc can be very harmful to dogs and other animals and I wouldn't want that to happen! It is hard to find anything natural nowadays though! Caz; in answer to your question, I don't know but maybe some people the cat forum will know? You could ask there, or I could if you like

According to My Itchy Dog, CSJ's Skinny Spray can be used on pet bedding and sleeping areas to repel fleas, but I don't think it kills them.
I've also seen this on the My Itchy Dog site (in the FAQs):

I don't use flea treatments on my dogs. Regular bathing in flea-repellent shampoo and vacuuming of the house keeps them at bay. I also don't worm them unless the show symptoms that they might have them.
