  Instead of a flea collar, check with your vet about some of the various
medications that they have  - collars on outdoor cats can be a problem.  Our
new not-quite full-grown kittens have not been out so it isn't an issue for
them, but out prior cat was prescribed a medication that we put on the back
of his neck once a month or every other month.  It was great and worked very
well - absorbed through the skin and killed the fleas if they tried to bite.
(He was allergic to flea bites so the new medications were much better than
flea baths!!)

  Before Joel and I moved to the Baltimore-Washington area, we lived in
  Phoenix for 3 years. There we didn't have to worry about fleas (or
  mosquitoes or roaches or mice.just scorpions!). Now that I've started
  to let my cat outside here in Baltimore, I'm wondering if I need to get
  her a flea collar. Do you cat-owners advise buying flea collars?
  Many thanks,
  Sarah Andrew Wilson
