treat the dog and treat the environment. use a product like frontline or
whatever your vet sells(not any of the crap you can buy at walmart), then
vacuum the carpet, especially areas the dog frequents. make sure to empty
out you vacuum outside, the fleas can hang out in the bag and continue their
life-cycle. wash the dog's bedding in hot water and use an environmental
product like knockout(or whatever your vet sells or recommends) on the
carpets, upholstery, etc.

You will need to treat all your animals with Frontline Combo. A sprey called Indorex can be aquired from you vets you will need to spray the whole house and hoover, wash all bedding in rooms where the animal may of been and when spreying the house do the skirting boards aswell.
Treat you animals regulary to prevent having to de-flea the house again.
Good Luck
