How To Protect Against Flea Bite?

Hi doctor, at the moment I am battling a flea infestation at my house. I have 2 cats, which I recently treated with Revolution, now I just gotta rid my room of these little critters. Last night they bit the palms of my hands and they don t hurt but whenever I hold something or close my hand I get a weird tingling on each bite and it s annoying! What can I put on the bites so it can stop?

Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I read your query and here is my advice.

You have to treat your cat with shampoo against the flea. This is the only way that they can leave your home.
You can use citerizine to help itching and put some alcohol to disinfect the wound and to help it not to get infected.

Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
