Unfortunately fleas live in the environment even in clean houses, they are usually carried by wildlife or other pets. You need to treat her with a spot on product such as broadline, advocate or frontline which you get from the vets. Do this every month to 6 weeks. Vacuum the entire house, wash all bedding and stay a flea killing aeresol such as RIP flea. This will kill the eggs and fleas in the environment.
