Lemon juice to fleas is as lethal as anthrax to humans.
A little over stretched imagination, but true no doubt.
So what you need to do is to slice up a lemon, soak it overnight in hot water and sieve out the juice in the morning.

Another one of the home flea remedies are herbs.
If you have a garden, plant lots of them.
If you live in a condominium or apartment, fret not, as you can buy them in the form of essential oils.
Some fleas totally dislike select herbs to the core, namely pennyroyal, lavender, mint, fennel and basil.
If you have a garden, try to plan them surrounding your house, as this would serve as a great gateway to block out incoming fleas.

For those of you who use essential oils, simply dilute them into about 1 to 5 parts and spray the contents as how you would have done for the lemon juice tip.
Alternatively, if you grow your own herbs, make sure you grow them around the house and not concentrate them at one spot.
Also, you may brighten up your home, decorating it with beautiful purple lavender and pennyroyal and enlightening the senses with mint leaves spread across the coffee table too.
As the fleas hate the smell of these herbs, the double impact of essential oils solution as well as your wonderfully home grown herbs around the house would surely serve to drive the fleas away.
Learn to be creative with ingredients and home materials to create home flea remedies, you would probably be surprised to find that flea removal is not as difficult as you think it is.
