Before you bomb, give Siphotrol Plus 2 a chance. Also capstar the animals and dose them with whatever else flea medicine you use. Bombs are kind of a last resort option.

Those things don't work. The best things to use are diatomaceous earth on your carpet, and if you don't have carpet, Google flea traps. They really work.

At least 1 in each room.

And then get flea killing carpet powder, put on carpet for however long it says, vacuum up.

If it is for your dogs, the best attack for fleas is to get stuff for outside, bomb the inside and buy some tablets for your dogs from the vet that kills the fleas when they bite your dog. You have to kill every flea or they just come back.

did u just get rid of a dog? If so, that's the problem. Flea bomb work a little but about 2 weeks after the dog is gone, the flea will leave too.

my favorite insectisides are the Bengal products...

bug bombs work well, but you need to follow the directions exactly...use no more than the instructions say and extinguish all pilot lights, etc.

I have seen more than one person blow up their own house by using too many bug bombs at a time...

THAT is the #1 most effective way imo. We did that AND one bomb in each room as another poster said. Also happened to have some diatomaceous earth so I put some in the carpet and yard.

DO treat your yard too. You may want to hit it again 5 or so days after to get the ones that hatch.

Unless your infestation is really bad, I believe just getting the dog comfortis or one of those type pills will work since they die without a host.

Treat any pets, get rid of any rodents or pests under or around the house, Vacuum everywhere 2-3 times a day for a couple of weeks , use an adulticide and IGR in the house.

it sucks.

I had used flea killing carpet spray. 2 applications and all gone. I had two indoor cats get out and spend time in the yard during flea season. I didn't even think of fleas until a week later when they showed up.
