    Mturk isn't a charity case and you shouldn't be either.

    Yes @Girl Polar Bear deserves a higher pay for being great at predicting sports but the base person that is trying at least should be a fair wage and they do not do that.

    We get it. We really do. Everybody knows you don't like UNU. Some folks here do like UNU. We know you have issues with the pay rate.

    You do not need to respond to every post on the forum. Your head will not explode. Just shake your head at the people who aren't following the One True Way and move on. I, and many other folks, grow weary of these nearly auto-responses every time certain topics come up.

    We get it. Stop.

    When we moved into a house that had a flea problem from the previous folks, we had to get flea traps on top of spraying the whole place with treatment/ carpet powder for it and constantly vacuuming up. With the shitty life cycle of fleas, you're probably killing adult ones but the baby ones/eggs. We had to repeatedly treat everything for awhile :/ They also sell the flea pill, which is good for getting any fleas off the pets in hours. If it isn't getting better, you might wanna call a pest control place if it comes to that. Better to let someone else rid your house of an invasion than get sick!

    Thankfully, we have hardwood throughout our home. UGH I would die if we had carpet right now. :( I talked to Tom the other day about the flea pill, I gotta find out which one is the best/strongest. And bomb again. And spray again. And wash everything again. I was tempted to spray myself with the flea treatment. :emoji_joy:

    i (thankfully) haven't had much experience with fleas, but helped a friend purge her house of them - we scrubbed carpets and furniture with baking soda (i think you can also use salt, or food grade diatomaceous earth) then vacuumed. then dish soap washed all the other things. i think they also hate rosemary? i'm so sorry you're dealing with this, i hope it goes away quickly and doesn't cause more issues. you're not wrong for owning pets because of it!

    and for your reaction - if benedryl messes you up (it does me - i'm like a frickin' toddler with it, i knock out hard) you can get straight up antihistamine from a health food store (i like the brand D-Hist, but it's expensive as heck). i'm pretty sure there's no limit to how much you can take and it doesn't make me drowsy. i love tea tree oil cream for skin issues, but be careful because it's super toxic to cats - i've read horror stories of people having it in their diffusers and cats getting sick from it being in the air. it should be fine on your skin, as long as kitty isn't snuggling up on you.
