Over the next few days, I'm going to be largely incapable of posting any new artwork - my house has been infested with fleas for a few weeks now, and recently it's gotten so bad that I literally can't live there. They seem to be centralized in my bedroom, which is where my computer is, and I can't even put my foot down on the floor without getting attacked. Sprays, powders, and bombs haven't worked at all; the fleas just seem to keep coming back in even greater numbers, just as hungry for my flesh as ever. So until I can work something out with a professional exterminator, I'm going to be shacking up with my grandmother, who has no Internet connection. I can use the community college computer labs, but they don't have scanners. With any luck, though, this'll all be over soon, so in the meantime, I'm going to keep drawing. You can expect a whole slew of new artwork from me once these pesky little spring-loaded bloodsuckers are dead and gone.

Dude, that's awful to hear that you have fleas.

I remember my Mom telling me when she was younger, fleas would be all over her because of her vessels being quite visible.

If you don't have carpeting, I'm afraid you'll have to use bleach to clean your floors to kill them. You also need to keep in mind that fleas come from the outside, so you need to treat your lawn also, otherwise they will keep coming in and multiplying.

Yeesh, fleas bite. Literally and figuratively. Let's hope the problem gets solved quickly.

It almost sounds like they originated in the yard somewhere and not the house, which may explain why they kep coming back so fast.

I'd offer a human sized flea collar. But you still have to get that colony of little vampires vermin out of the house.

How about if I send over a box of hungry bullfrogs. They should take care of those pests in no time flat.
