marcicatWe've moved on to an OTC spot-on flea treatment. (I felt like any progress I was making through alternative methods was largely illusory, and it had reached the point where I thought his quality of life was being impacted. Increasing the use of natural treatments had its own risks with less expectation of success.)
After much research, I went with Advantage II, although I got the one for the weight class under his. (He's pretty close to the borderline, and I figured being a senior cat was enough to tip him over.)
It's been over 24 hours, and so far he has shown no ill effects. And it's definitely working. Right now I'm washing all of our stuff (again), and then I'll move on to vacuuming everything (also again). Meanwhile, he seems much more comfortable.
It suddenly seems possible that the flea saga of 2017 is drawing to a close. That would make me so, so happy.
