    I would personally take the frogs out till it is cleaned and you are sure there is no fleas left. You wouldn't want to take a chance of it biteing your frog because I imagine one of those fleas will be carrying something that will make your frog very sick. Fleas are notorious carriers of diseases and stuff the little buggers.

    We plan on dumping the substrate tonight and using wipe out for reptiles on the viv. Should we put him in a container for a night while the wipe out dries?
