In *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, the side quest "A Good Scrub" sets you on a path that involves more bathhouse-related tasks, including finding an item infested with fleas for Betty. Here's how to navigate this quest and locate the flea-infested item:
Pick Up ‘A Good Scrub’
To start, speak with the innkeeper in Kuttenberg about work, who will direct you to Betty at the bathhouse. Be aware that there are two bathhouses in Kuttenberg; Betty's is located in the southeast part of the city. Once you meet her, express your interest in working and agree to go to Grund to find Matsek.
Matsek is hesitant about being seen with the girls he's supposed to escort to the bathhouse. Approach the courtyard where he's standing and find three girls at a table. Introduce yourself as someone working for Betty and escort them back to the city.
Promote the Bathhouse
After returning with the girls, Betty will ask you to help promote the bathhouse to attract customers. Work with her to craft a compelling pitch, then shout it out at the grain market, horse market, vintners' street, and merchants' street. Make sure to do this during the day, so if it's evening when you receive the quest, wait until morning.
Clean Up the Bathhouse and Finish ‘A Good Scrub’
Your next task is to clean the bathhouse before the alderman arrives for inspection. Completing these tasks swiftly is crucial; failure to do so will result in the bathhouse being shut down, preventing you from picking up the subsequent quest, "Ill Repute," from Betty.
Finding Fleas for ‘Ill Repute’ in Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2
After successfully passing the inspection, speak with Betty about ongoing issues with the bathhouse. She'll inform you that the city council is deciding on the main bathhouse, and you need to make the councillor leave the competing bathhouse. To do this, gather information from Meaty Mary, Katcha, and Little Lida about the councillor's dislikes.
You'll need Chamomile Brew to add to the wine cask on the second floor of the competing bathhouse. Lida will only reveal the councillor's preference for fragrant oils after you give her a noblewomen's dress from a tailor. If you choose to sabotage, head to the third floor, lockpick a cabinet, and steal the oils.
Katcha mentions that the bathhouse once had fleas. To find the flea-infested item in *Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2*, head to the east gate of Kuttenberg City. There, you'll find a small camp of beggars. Search the sacks to locate a flea-infested blanket.
Once you have the fleas, return to the bathhouse and go to the room where you added the Chamomile Brew to the wine. When no one is watching, interact with the baskets in the room and pour the fleas into Councillor Naaz's laundry basket and the clean laundry basket.
If you're unable to find the flea-infested item, remember that completing just one of the three tasks is enough to make the councillor leave, allowing you to complete the quest and move on to others like "Axe from the Lake."
