No more constant scratching from you or your pets. No more embarrassing flea sightings when guests visit. No more failed DIY treatments that waste your money and time.
Your carpets, furniture, and pet bedding become safe spaces again instead of flea breeding grounds. Your family can walk barefoot without getting bitten. Your pets can rest comfortably without the endless itch-scratch cycle that’s been driving everyone crazy.
You’ll have peace of mind knowing the problem is actually solved—not just temporarily masked. Our professional treatment eliminates fleas at every stage of development, so you won’t see them bouncing back in a few weeks like they do with store-bought sprays.
We’ve been serving Berkeley and surrounding Hernando County communities as a family-run operation where you work directly with the owner. This isn’t some corporate call center—you get personal, transparent service with direct responses 24/7, even on weekends.
We understand Berkeley’s unique challenges with year-round flea activity. Florida’s warm, humid climate means flea season never really ends here, unlike northern states where winter provides relief. Our state-certified technicians know exactly how to handle the persistent flea problems that come with living in Central Florida.
Over 100 five-star Google reviews reflect our commitment to honest communication and relationship-focused service. We answer every call personally and respond within 24 hours because we know flea problems can’t wait.
First, we conduct a thorough inspection of your Berkeley property to identify exactly where fleas are hiding and breeding. This includes checking carpets, pet bedding, furniture, and outdoor areas where your pets spend time. We locate the source of the infestation, not just the obvious problem areas.
Next, we apply targeted treatments using professional-grade products and insect growth regulators that eliminate fleas at every stage of their lifecycle—eggs, larvae, pupae, and adults. Store-bought products typically only kill adult fleas, which is why DIY treatments fail so often.
We treat both indoor and outdoor areas because Berkeley’s climate allows fleas to thrive year-round in shaded outdoor spaces under porches, in tall grass, and around shrubs. Our comprehensive approach ensures fleas can’t just migrate from untreated areas back into your home.
Finally, we provide follow-up treatments as needed and give you specific prevention strategies to keep your Berkeley home flea-free long-term.

Our Berkeley flea control service includes comprehensive interior treatment of all affected areas, with special attention to carpets, upholstered furniture, pet bedding, and baseboards where flea eggs and larvae hide. We use professional insect growth regulators that prevent immature fleas from developing into biting adults.
Exterior treatment covers your yard, focusing on shaded areas, under decks and porches, and anywhere your pets spend time outdoors. Berkeley’s subtropical climate creates perfect breeding conditions in these areas year-round, so outdoor treatment is essential for long-term control.
We also provide detailed preparation instructions and post-treatment guidance specific to Berkeley’s climate challenges. This includes recommendations for pet treatments (coordinated with your veterinarian), ongoing prevention strategies, and maintenance tips that work in Central Florida’s persistent humidity and warmth.
Follow-up treatments are scheduled based on the severity of your specific situation, typically within 10-14 days to target newly hatched fleas before they can reproduce.
Professional flea extermination in Berkeley typically ranges from $150 to $350 for most homes, depending on the size of your property and severity of the infestation. This includes both interior and exterior treatment with professional-grade products that target all flea life stages.
The cost is often less than what homeowners spend on multiple failed DIY attempts. Store-bought treatments might seem cheaper initially, but they rarely eliminate the problem completely, leading to repeated purchases and wasted time. Professional treatment provides long-lasting results that actually solve the problem rather than just temporarily reducing adult flea populations.
We provide most quotes over the phone after a brief consultation about your specific situation, so you’ll know the cost upfront without any surprises.
You may continue seeing fleas for 1-2 weeks after professional treatment, and this is actually normal and expected. The treatment eliminates adult fleas immediately, but flea eggs and pupae already in your carpets and furniture will continue hatching over the next 10-14 days.
The professional products we use include insect growth regulators that prevent these newly hatched fleas from reaching maturity and reproducing. So while you might see some flea activity initially, these fleas cannot complete their lifecycle and the population quickly crashes.
This is why we typically schedule a follow-up treatment within two weeks—to eliminate any remaining fleas that hatched after the initial service. Complete elimination usually occurs within 2-3 weeks of the first treatment, depending on the severity of the original infestation.
Yes, fleas can absolutely survive in Florida sand and outdoor areas throughout the year. Berkeley’s warm, humid climate provides ideal conditions for flea development even during winter months, unlike northern states where cold weather provides natural flea control.
Fleas particularly thrive in shaded sandy areas, under porches and decks, in tall grass, and around shrubs where the sand stays moist. The combination of Florida’s temperatures (typically 70-85°F) and high humidity creates perfect breeding conditions year-round. Even areas that seem dry can harbor flea eggs and larvae that become active when conditions are right.
This is why comprehensive outdoor treatment is essential in Berkeley. We focus on these problem areas during exterior applications, using products specifically designed for Florida’s challenging climate conditions. Indoor-only treatments often fail because fleas simply re-enter from untreated outdoor breeding sites.
The actual treatment process typically takes 2-4 hours depending on your home’s size and the extent of the infestation. However, complete flea elimination usually requires 2-3 weeks from start to finish due to the flea lifecycle.
The initial treatment eliminates adult fleas immediately, but eggs and pupae continue developing for 10-14 days afterward. This is why we schedule follow-up treatments—to catch newly emerged fleas before they can reproduce. Most Berkeley homes are completely flea-free within 2-3 weeks of the first service.
You’ll need to stay out of treated areas for 2-4 hours after application to allow products to dry completely. We provide specific timing instructions based on the products used and your home’s ventilation. Pet-safe re-entry times are clearly explained, and we coordinate timing around your family’s schedule for minimal disruption.
Professional treatments use insect growth regulators and specialized products that target all four flea life stages—eggs, larvae, pupae, and adults. DIY products from stores typically only kill adult fleas, which represent just 5% of the total flea population in your home.
We also know exactly where to look and treat. Fleas hide in carpet fibers, furniture crevices, pet bedding, and outdoor areas that homeowners often miss. We have the equipment and expertise to reach these hiding spots effectively, while DIY treatments often leave untreated areas where fleas continue breeding.
The concentration and formulation of professional products is significantly stronger and longer-lasting than consumer-grade options. Our treatments provide residual protection that continues working for weeks, while store-bought sprays typically lose effectiveness within days. This is why professional treatment often costs less in the long run than repeated DIY attempts.
Yes, comprehensive flea control in Berkeley requires treating both indoor and outdoor areas. Florida’s year-round warm climate means fleas actively breed outdoors in shaded areas, under porches, around shrubs, and in sandy soil where pets spend time.
Indoor treatment focuses on carpets, upholstered furniture, pet bedding, baseboards, and cracks where flea eggs and larvae develop. We use different product formulations for indoor versus outdoor applications to ensure maximum effectiveness in each environment while maintaining safety for your family and pets.
Outdoor treatment is particularly important in Berkeley because untreated yard areas become constant sources of re-infestation. We target problem areas like shaded sandy spots, under decks and porches, and anywhere your pets rest or play outside. The combination of indoor and outdoor treatment creates a comprehensive barrier that prevents fleas from establishing new breeding cycles on your property.
