Since she was scratching and shaking her head for the last couple of days, the vet recommended a flea treatment, Advantage 80, I think it's also available in the United States. However, you have to drop the fluid in the fur at her neck so she cannot lick it off, but it has a strong smell, kind of like bitter almond. Luna hates it. Right after the treatment, she jumped onto the closet and stayed for a couple of hours, but when she came down, I noticed she was running away from me. She never did this before. When I wanted to play Kitty Light with her, she even hissed at me, and I'm not allowed to touch her. I eventually washed that fluid off, but of course the fur is still smelling and it did not help. I'm still not allowed to approach her and I swear I'm feeling very bad right now 'cause Luna does not like me anymore. Hopefully she's in a better mood tomorrow. The sadest thing is - she has always trusted me in everything but now this seems to be over. She seems to be very heartbroken about what I did to her.
