A good product for fleas for all pets in the house would be what you really need. Here is a list of good quality flea (and ticks) treatment. Spot ons: Revolution, Advantage, Advantage Multi, Bravecto spot on (ticks as well) - for cats (in case there anyin the house), Comfortis. A good house spray would be Indoorex.
