Suggest Remedy For Infestation Of Fleas

default
Posted on Mon, 23 Feb 2015
Question: I have a infestation of something in the house. First thinking it was fleas, but 7 months later now so sure. They are crawling around in one of my eyes and I can feel them on me at all times. Had two pesticide companies come out and that didn't help at all. In the interim, what kind of doctor should I see if this is a parasitic infection?

Brief Answer:
Infectious disease specialist to consult...

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I am sorry for the situation you are in.

You are saying to have infestation of something in your house that is crawling around in on of your eyes. I advise to consult with infectious disease specialist and to run lab tests to determine the type of infestation:
- culture and sensitivity testing of eye swabs
- physical examination

You can send a photo of your eyes problems or other skin issues to me for a more specific advise.

Hope it was of help!
