You’ll notice fewer fleas within 24 hours, and complete elimination within a week. No more constant scratching from your pets or itchy bites on your family.
Our residential flea treatment in Clay Sink targets every stage of the flea lifecycle. While store-bought sprays only kill adult fleas you can see, we eliminate eggs and larvae hiding in carpets, furniture, and pet bedding.
Florida’s year-round warm climate means fleas never truly go away on their own. Professional treatment breaks the breeding cycle completely, giving you lasting relief instead of temporary fixes.
Around The Clock Pest Service has served Clay Sink and surrounding Hernando County communities for years. As a family-run business, you work directly with the owner—not a rotating cast of technicians.
We understand Clay County’s unique pest challenges. The riverside location and humid climate create perfect breeding conditions for fleas, especially in areas with pets and wildlife activity.
You’ll get honest quotes over the phone and direct responses 24/7, even on weekends. Our 100+ five-star Google reviews reflect our commitment to transparent service and real results.
First, we inspect your property to locate flea activity and identify the source. Fleas often come from pet areas, but can also originate from wildlife, previous residents, or neighboring properties.
Next, we apply professional-grade treatments both indoors and outdoors. Our yard flea spray service in Clay Sink targets outdoor breeding areas while indoor treatments eliminate fleas hiding in carpets, furniture, and cracks.
Finally, we implement prevention strategies to stop re-infestation. This includes treatment recommendations for pets (coordinated with your veterinarian) and environmental modifications to make your property less attractive to fleas.

Our flea exterminator for homes with pets uses family-safe methods that won’t harm children or animals. We treat all areas where fleas hide: carpets, upholstery, pet bedding, and floor cracks.
Clay Sink’s proximity to wooded areas and the St. Johns River means fleas can come from multiple sources. Wildlife like raccoons, squirrels, and stray animals often introduce fleas to residential properties.
Professional flea fogging may be recommended for severe infestations. This reaches areas that sprays cannot penetrate, ensuring complete elimination of hidden flea populations throughout your home.
Most flea treatments take 2-4 hours depending on your property size and infestation severity. You’ll need to keep pets and family members away during application and for 2-3 hours afterward while products dry.
Initial results appear within 24-48 hours as adult fleas die off. Complete elimination typically takes 7-14 days as remaining eggs hatch and contact treated surfaces.
Follow-up treatments may be needed in 2-3 weeks for severe infestations, but most Clay Sink properties achieve full control with the initial service.
Professional treatments use insect growth regulators (IGRs) that disrupt flea reproduction—something unavailable in store-bought products. DIY sprays only kill adult fleas you can see, missing 95% of the population hiding as eggs and larvae.
Store-bought treatments often fail because they don’t penetrate deeply into carpets and furniture where fleas breed. This leads to repeated applications and higher long-term costs.
Professional flea control addresses the complete lifecycle and identifies infestation sources you might miss. We also coordinate with your veterinarian for comprehensive pet treatment recommendations.
True sand fleas are actually small crustaceans found at beaches, not the biting fleas that infest homes and pets. However, regular fleas thrive in sandy soil, especially in shaded, moist areas around your property.
Clay County’s sandy soil provides ideal breeding conditions when combined with organic matter like leaves or pet waste. Fleas can survive in outdoor sand for months, waiting for a host to pass by.
Our yard flea spray service treats these outdoor breeding areas to prevent fleas from establishing populations around your home. We focus on shaded areas under decks, around pet areas, and near entry points.
Call for professional help if you see fleas jumping on furniture or pets, notice excessive scratching from your animals, or find small red bite marks on family members’ ankles and legs.
Other signs include finding “flea dirt” (small black specks) in pet bedding or carpets, or if DIY treatments haven’t worked after 2-3 attempts. Florida’s year-round flea season means infestations can explode quickly without proper treatment.
Don’t wait if you suspect fleas—early intervention prevents the population from establishing in multiple rooms and reduces overall treatment costs.
Yes, our flea treatments are specifically chosen for safety around families and pets. We use EPA-approved products applied according to strict safety protocols by state-certified technicians.
You’ll need to remove pets and children during application and for 2-3 hours while products dry. Once dry, treated areas are safe for normal family activity.
We coordinate with your veterinarian for pet-specific flea prevention to ensure treatments work together safely. Our family-owned business prioritizes your family’s health while delivering effective flea control.
Most flea infestations start with pets bringing fleas inside, but Clay County’s wildlife can also introduce fleas to your property. Raccoons, squirrels, and stray animals often carry fleas that drop eggs in your yard.
Previous residents with pets may have left dormant flea eggs that activate when you move in. Fleas can remain dormant for months until vibration, warmth, or carbon dioxide signals that hosts are present.
Used furniture, rugs, or even visiting friends with pets can introduce fleas. Florida’s humid climate allows fleas to survive and reproduce year-round, making prevention crucial for long-term control.
