Get pest control there now. Give your cat a flea bath. Clean everything very well. I had to deal with this once and it was a months long ordeal. If you catch it fast, you might avoid this.
Thankfully we have very little fabric in our tiny apartment, I would imagine our vinyl floors are not fleas favorite places. Were in the middle of some monumental purchases rn so I'm not sure we can afford pest control, but what we can do is hit every spot of textiles in our house, might just go for the steam cleaner after all
Found a few flees in the carpet last months ago, cleaned up, hoovered etc... then haven't seen any more since. A good clean, flee comb an a few sticky catcher-thingies should do the job fine.
