I have been having a major battle with them, too. One of my dogs has even gotten flea anemia and was almost on the verge of needing a transfusion. I have treated the yard, bombed the house 3 times so far and used Frontline Plus and Advantage. I would try Comfortis but since I use Ivermectin for heartworms the vet says not to use that. I am going to have to get some more Capstar for my Gizmo to keep them off him so he can regain his health. One of the cheapest ways to kill them is to take a white pie plate, put some dish detergent in it (small amount) and then fill it with water. Put it on the floor and shine a bright light on it. The fleas will jump in and drown!
