A Golden method to get rid of fleas without bombing:

1 cup of salt
1/2 cup of 20-Mule-Team Borax/baking soda
A clove of fresh garlic
4 spoons of a cheap insecticide (like one called TAT, PT Alpine, or even Frontline/Advantage, insecticide with a growth inhibitor is more effective)

Borax i a very strong natural chemical to dehydrate fleas and kill most stages but we use with a minimal amount to minimize health effect, Read more about How does borax kill fleas?

Baking soda is suitable and effective substitute to the borax.

Garlic is a natural killer poison to fleas but don't add it to the cats food.

Using an insecticide and IGR Insect Growth Regulator is to maximize the lethal effect of home remedies with a minimum healthy effect, remember that salt work as a natural IGR.

Sprinkle a handful of salt-borax-insecticide recipe along the passages between the rooms and along the bottom side of walls, as fleas can be dehydrated by salty mixture sprinkled everywhere, larva and pupae are most effective than adults, as washing bed mattress can remove most adults (adult fleas are 5% of fleas population).

Wash hardwood floors with spraying a watery solution of insecticide-borax-salt mixture, as sprinkling salt crystals may not be suitable, add a one third cup of oily scent to maximize repelling effectiveness.

Fill in every corner of the carpets in the house with this deadly mixture, you can spray the liquid version on carpets instead of sprinkling.

Extract most larvae in carpets by starting to vacuum your carpets and furniture 2 to 3 times each week for a few weeks, a golden tips to get vacuuming works to kill most fleas:

Corners and thick Carpeting will need to be heavily dusted.

Leave the sprinkled mixture and sprayed solution for 48 hour on floors, carpets, and mattresses to maximize repelling and killing effectiveness.

Vacuum thoroughly with a disposable bag.
Fill the disposable bag with a handful of the killing insecticide-salt mix, once a flea drawn into the bag, will get poisoned and died forever, unless this step, the fleas in the bag still alive for a longer period and could go and run away, also eggs still able to start hatching, they will not be able to re-infest your home in the future.
Take the bag outside to a dumpster or trash can away from your house.
Make vacuuming as a habit, as vacuum process can exterminate fleas population regularly and used to eliminate chemicals that we have sprinkled.
You should see a difference in 2, 3 weeks at most.

Wash all bedding with hot soapy water is a first line remedy to force fleas to their deadly trap, fleas will be trapped into soapy pool.
Use chlorine with white cloths could increase the killing rate to 50% with minimum bad effect on cloths.
Also wash pet beds, toys and washable pet items at the same time. 

Additional tips:

Fleas are attracted to the light with acceptable rate: Place a light bulb or lamp over a shallow dish of soapy water at night, add scents to maximize the effect on fleas and get a nice smell while fleas being trapped, more about flea traps.

DE and Vinegar are effective to get rid of fleas but can be used a second line defense after this recipe, as DE and vinegar has more harsh effect on both fleas and human as well, DE is preferred in yards than inside house.

Use liquid Soda instead of water as a natural spray for fleas for carpets and mattresses.

Treat your cat with a flea bath with any flea shampoo made for cats only.

Keep your cats on the Advantage for a couple of months post the infestation.
