Why Fleas Are So Difficult

Fleas Are Tougher Than You Think

Most people don’t realize that adult fleas are just 5% of the actual problem. The other 95% are eggs, larvae, and pupae hiding deep in your carpets, under furniture, and in cracks where you can’t see them.

Store-bought sprays only kill the adult fleas you can see. The eggs keep hatching for weeks, which is why you keep seeing new fleas even after you think you’ve treated the problem. Our approach targets the entire flea lifecycle with treatments timed to break the reproduction cycle completely.

Complete Flea Control Program

What's Included in Your Treatment

Your flea control service includes a thorough interior treatment of all carpeted areas, upholstery, pet bedding zones, and cracks where fleas hide. We also treat outdoor areas where your pets spend time to prevent re-infestation.

Each treatment is customized based on your home’s layout, the severity of the infestation, and your pets’ habits. We use integrated pest management techniques that are effective against fleas but safe around your family when applied correctly by trained professionals.

Flea Control FAQs

Common Questions About Our Service

How long does it take to get rid of fleas completely?

Most flea infestations require 2-3 weeks to eliminate completely, even with professional treatment. This isn't because our treatment doesn't work - it's because of the flea lifecycle. Flea eggs and pupae can remain dormant in your carpets for weeks before hatching into new adults. Our treatment kills the adults and larvae immediately, but we need to wait for the remaining eggs to hatch so we can eliminate those fleas too. You'll see a dramatic reduction in fleas within the first few days, but complete elimination takes patience as we break the entire reproduction cycle.

Is flea treatment safe around my pets and children?

Yes, when applied by trained professionals following proper protocols. We use integrated pest management techniques that target fleas specifically while minimizing exposure to your family and pets. During treatment, we'll ask you to keep pets and children out of treated areas until the products dry completely, which typically takes 2-3 hours. Once dry, the treated areas are safe for normal family activity. We always explain exactly what we're using and provide specific instructions for your home to ensure everyone's safety throughout the treatment process.

Do I need to prepare my home before flea treatment?

Yes, proper preparation helps our treatment work more effectively. We'll ask you to vacuum all carpeted areas thoroughly before we arrive, including under furniture and along baseboards where fleas hide. Don't empty the vacuum bag immediately - the vibration actually helps flea eggs hatch so our treatment can kill them. Remove pets' bedding so we can treat those areas, and pick up toys or items from carpeted floors. We'll also need access to areas where your pets spend the most time, both indoors and outdoors. We provide a complete preparation checklist when we schedule your service.

Why do I still see fleas after professional treatment?

Seeing some fleas for 1-2 weeks after treatment is actually normal and expected. Our treatment kills adult fleas and larvae immediately, but flea pupae (the cocoon stage) are naturally resistant to all insecticides. These pupae continue hatching into adult fleas for up to two weeks after treatment. However, these newly hatched fleas die quickly when they contact our treatment residue. You might also notice fleas seem more active initially - this is because our treatment irritates them, making them jump more before they die. The key indicator of success is that flea activity decreases significantly each day after treatment.

Can I just treat my pet and skip treating the house?

Unfortunately, no. Treating only your pet will not eliminate a flea infestation because 95% of fleas actually live in your home environment, not on your pet. Adult fleas jump onto your pet to feed, then jump back off into your carpets to lay eggs. Even if you kill every flea on your pet today, hundreds more will jump back on from your carpets, furniture, and baseboards tomorrow. Successful flea control requires treating both your pet (with veterinarian-approved products) and your home environment simultaneously. We focus on the home environment while you work with your vet on pet-specific treatments.

How much does professional flea control cost in Swartz Creek?

Flea treatment costs vary based on your home's size, the severity of the infestation, and whether you need interior-only or interior plus exterior treatment. Most residential flea treatments in Swartz Creek range from $150-400 for initial service. We provide upfront pricing with no hidden fees, and we offer price matching for reasonable competitor quotes. We also provide discounts for seniors, veterans, and first responders. The investment is typically much less than you'd spend on multiple store-bought products that don't work, plus you get professional results backed by our experience and follow-up service if needed.
