No, you don't need to do anything except put 0.1 ml of the Advantage on
each ferret and a regular dose on the dog. When a flea gets on one of
your animals, it will die very soon. When the larvae in the rugs mature
into adult fleas and go seeking a blood meal, they will jump onto an
animal and will die before they can lay any more eggs. Quite soon, your
home will be flea free.
