I live with my boyfriend and another person who is a hoarder. The other person takes up 80% of the basement with boxes and doesn't clean his area. There is matted cat hair everywhere and it really grinds my gears how he doesn't give a f---. He has several cats which gave my cat fleas. I treated my cat, but his cats are still infested. They're awful cats and he wants to get rid of one, but we can't until he finally treats them. The fleas are every where and at work I found several on my clothes. This and the tape worm problem made me extremely manic last year. I wish he would actually clean or move out. I really wish we could move, but we don't have the money. Even when he eventually treats his cats there will be a lot of vacuuming to be done which he won't help with. This is a problem since basically the whole basement is his and if he doesn't clean the damn place this will happen again. The last time the flea/tape worm problem happened it lasted for 6 months because he felt that medicating them once was good enough. I'm so angry right now and paranoid about fleas being on me, I just want a normal home. I don't ask for anything crazy like a 5 bedroom house, I just want what every person needs. I don't expect an answer to this problem since it's the hoarder's fault and we tried for so long to change him to be better.
