Jolene, Jack is feeling much better today. it was like night and day. today she will jump up on anything and is romping around with my other cat. that injection really helps her. hopefully that will help and she won't be sick anymore.

I hope Jack is feeling better today. If it is fleas bothering her, the advantage and steroid injection should fix her right up. My rainbow angel Puss suffered from flea allergy and one bite would make her miserable. And the advantage and shot always made her feel better quickly. So if Jack is not improving, my guess is that it isn't fleas bothering her. And since your vet has offered his diagnosis already, you probably need a second opinion.
Good luck,
