You’ll walk barefoot on your carpets again without flea bites covering your ankles. Your pets will stop the constant scratching and hair loss that comes with flea infestations. Your family can relax in your living spaces without worrying about these blood-sucking pests jumping on you.
Here in North Weeki Wachee, fleas don’t take a winter break like they do up north. Florida’s warm, humid climate means flea season runs 365 days a year, and these persistent pests multiply faster than most homeowners can keep up with.
When we eliminate your flea problem, we target every stage of their life cycle—not just the adult fleas you can see. That means no more surprise re-infestations three weeks later when the eggs you missed finally hatch.
We’ve been solving North Weeki Wachee’s toughest flea problems for years. As a family-owned business, you work directly with the owner—not some faceless corporation that doesn’t understand Florida’s unique pest challenges.
We know that fleas in our area behave differently than they do in other parts of the country. The sandy soil, consistent moisture, and year-round warmth create perfect breeding conditions that make standard treatments from big box stores practically useless.
Our state-certified technicians have seen every type of flea infestation North Weeki Wachee homes face, from sand fleas that pets pick up at nearby beaches to cat fleas that have taken over entire carpeted areas.
First, we inspect your entire property—inside and out—to identify exactly where fleas are breeding and hiding. Most homeowners are surprised to learn that the adult fleas biting them represent only about 5% of the total flea population in their home.
Next, we target every stage of the flea life cycle using professional-grade treatments that aren’t available to consumers. We use insect growth regulators (IGRs) that prevent flea eggs and larvae from developing into biting adults, breaking the reproduction cycle that keeps infestations coming back.
We treat both indoor and outdoor areas because fleas that survive in your yard will just re-infest your pets and home. This includes shaded areas where fleas love to develop, pet bedding areas, carpeted spaces, and the cracks and crevices where eggs typically fall and develop.
Finally, we schedule follow-up treatments as needed to catch any fleas that were in the egg stage during our initial visit. In Florida’s climate, this comprehensive approach is essential for complete elimination.

Our flea control service includes indoor treatment of all carpeted areas, upholstery, pet bedding, and furniture where fleas hide and reproduce. We also treat outdoor areas including your yard, shaded landscaping, and areas where your pets spend time.
For severe infestations, we offer professional flea fogging that penetrates deep into carpet fibers and hard-to-reach spaces where eggs and larvae develop. This is particularly effective in North Weeki Wachee homes with thick carpeting or multiple pets.
We use pet-safe treatments that are specifically formulated for Florida homes. Unlike harsh chemicals that require you to evacuate for hours, our treatments allow your family and pets to return to treated areas once surfaces are dry. We also provide specific guidance for homes with cats, as some flea treatments that are safe for dogs can be dangerous for felines.
Most flea treatments take 2-4 hours depending on your home size and infestation severity. You’ll typically see a significant reduction in adult fleas within 24-48 hours of treatment.
However, complete elimination takes 2-4 weeks because of the flea life cycle. Eggs that were already laid before treatment will continue hatching for several weeks, but these new fleas will die when they contact our treatment residue. This is normal and expected—it doesn’t mean the treatment failed.
In Florida’s climate, we often recommend a follow-up treatment 2-3 weeks after the initial service to catch any fleas that were in the egg stage during our first visit. This ensures complete elimination and prevents re-infestation.
Yes, professional treatment is significantly more effective than store-bought products. Over-the-counter flea sprays typically only kill adult fleas, which represent just 5% of your total flea population.
Our professional treatments include insect growth regulators (IGRs) that prevent eggs and larvae from developing into adults. We also have access to stronger active ingredients that aren’t available to consumers, allowing us to eliminate fleas hiding deep in carpet fibers and upholstery.
Most importantly, we understand how fleas behave in Florida’s year-round breeding season. While DIY treatments might provide temporary relief, they rarely address the complete life cycle, leading to re-infestations within 2-3 weeks when missed eggs hatch.
Absolutely. We use pet-safe and child-safe treatments that are specifically designed for homes with families. Our products are applied according to strict EPA guidelines and manufacturer specifications.
You’ll need to keep pets and children out of treated areas until surfaces are completely dry, which typically takes 2-4 hours. Once dry, treated areas are safe for normal family activities including pets walking on carpets and children playing on floors.
We provide specific instructions for each treatment and can adjust our approach for homes with cats, elderly pets, or family members with chemical sensitivities. We’ll also recommend treating your pets with veterinarian-approved flea preventatives as part of the complete solution.
Fleas don’t actually live in sand itself, but they thrive in the organic matter that accumulates in sandy areas—like leaf litter, pet waste, and debris. North Weeki Wachee’s sandy soil combined with our humid climate creates ideal conditions for flea development.
Sand fleas (which are actually a different pest entirely) are found on beaches, but the fleas infesting your home and pets are typically cat fleas that develop in shaded, moist areas of your yard. These areas often have sandy soil mixed with organic matter where flea eggs and larvae can develop.
We treat these outdoor breeding areas as part of our comprehensive service, focusing on shaded spots under decks, around pet areas, and anywhere organic debris accumulates in your sandy soil.
While professional treatment has a higher upfront cost ($200-400 for most homes), it’s typically more cost-effective long-term than repeatedly buying DIY products that don’t fully solve the problem.
Most homeowners spend $50-100 on multiple store-bought treatments, flea shampoos, sprays, and bombs before calling us. These products often provide temporary relief but miss the eggs and larvae, leading to re-infestations every few weeks.
Our professional treatment eliminates the entire flea population in one comprehensive service, saving you money on repeated DIY attempts and protecting your family from ongoing flea bites and pet health issues. We also provide guarantees on our work, something you don’t get with store-bought products.
Vacuum all carpeted areas thoroughly before our arrival, paying special attention to areas where pets spend time. This removes adult fleas and stimulates eggs to hatch, making our treatment more effective.
Wash all pet bedding in hot water and remove pet food and water bowls from treatment areas. You’ll also want to pick up toys, clothing, and other items from floors and furniture that will be treated.
If you have cats, make sure they’re secured in an untreated room during service, as they’re more sensitive to certain flea treatments. We’ll provide a complete preparation checklist when you schedule, but don’t worry—most preparation takes less than 30 minutes and we’re happy to answer any questions about getting your home ready.
