Cat Flea

What's the best way to get rid of Cat Fleas in the home, if you've already seen an adult Cat Flea?

I just brought a young stray cat home from work, she was outside.
I saw some black flecks fall onto my t-shirt, and saw an adult cat flea this morning. The cat's been in the home 2 days. I intend to clean and vaccumn the rugs and scrub the floors and treat the cat as well, is there anything else I should do?
I went to the pet store & picked up a flea mist for cats, cat bed, carpet, and furniture.
I will be washing the laundry at 6am tomorrow morning. the general scrubbing and vaccing I will do tonight. She has a vet appointment for Sat, 8am.

First get some flea medice for the cat, we use Revolution for our cat. To get ride of the fleas, put some beer in some bowls and place them through out the house.For some odd reason fleas love the stuff, they just jump in and drown.Don't worry the cat shouldn't try to drink the beer.
