I believe we are flea free, no bites for a couple of days, spraying and hoovering has worked, thanks Sarriss. I've ordered a Hazmat/CSI type suit to venture next door when I have to, as I've discovered the spray they have used (and think they have solved the problem with) is basically silicon based with no insecticide, I'm not that hopeful they've succeeded so I want to be prepared. Him nextdoor thinks I've picked up fleas from the garden, implying it's not his cat or house but my own fault I've got 30 odd bites that are still itching!. In 46 years of messing about in this garden I have never brought in fleas, the odd tick perhaps but no fleas. I'm told fleas like to bite women best so that's why he doesn't think it's his environment as he hasn't been bitten. P only had a few bites too. Anyway saga over here at least so I'm happy.
