Moved into apartment with fleas

We’re doing the borax method currently but as I was looking up traps I read that lights attracted fleas I’m not sure how true that is but now I am concerned that if I’m lying in bed on my tablet late at night in my dark room I’ll get some fleas jumping. A little while after moving in I began noticing signs of mice (droppings on the stove and counters).

That same day his property manager came to set traps. We have two dogs that have reactions to typical topical flea treatments so we’re unable to medicate them in that manner, but we do have a backup plan if the need arises (thank heavens).
