Understanding Flea Infestations

Where Fleas Come From

Pets: Dogs and cats are primary hosts
Wildlife: Opossums, raccoons, and feral cats
Previous tenants: Dormant pupae can emerge months later
Visitors: Friends’ pets can introduce fleas
Yard: Shaded, moist areas breed fleas

The Flea Life Cycle

Effective treatment must address all four stages:

Eggs (50% of population) - Fall off pets into environment
Larvae (35%) - Hide in carpets and cracks
Pupae (10%) - Protected cocoons, can stay dormant
Adults (5%) - The biters you see

Why DIY Fails

Foggers don’t reach hidden larvae
Sprays miss pupae in cocoons
Pet-only treatment ignores environment
Single treatment doesn’t break cycle
Re-infestation occurs within weeks

Frequently Asked Questions

How long until fleas are gone?

Adult fleas die within hours, but complete elimination takes 2-4 weeks as remaining eggs and pupae develop. This is why follow-up treatment is crucial.

Do I need to treat my yard?

If pets go outside or you have wildlife visitors, yard treatment is recommended. Outdoor treatment prevents re-infestation and speeds elimination.

What about my pets?

Pets must be treated by a veterinarian on the same day as home treatment. We coordinate with your vet for best results. Ongoing prevention is essential.

Is treatment safe for my family?

Yes. We use products specifically designed for flea control with excellent safety profiles. We provide clear instructions for treatment day and re-entry times.
