Within days of our professional flea control treatment in Port Lonesome, FL, you’ll notice the difference. Your carpets, furniture, and pet bedding become safe spaces again. Your family can relax without the constant worry of flea bites or the health risks these parasites bring.
The peace of mind comes from knowing we’ve treated both indoor and outdoor areas where fleas hide and reproduce. You’re not just getting temporary relief—you’re getting a comprehensive solution that prevents re-infestation.
Around The Clock Pest Service has been serving Port Lonesome and surrounding Hillsborough County communities with honest, effective pest control. As a family-owned business, you work directly with the owner—not a rotating cast of technicians who don’t know your property.
We understand the unique challenges Florida homeowners face with year-round flea activity. Port Lonesome’s warm, humid climate creates perfect breeding conditions for fleas, especially in the sandy soil common throughout the area.
Our state-certified approach has earned us over 100 five-star Google reviews from neighbors who needed real solutions, not sales pitches. When you call, you get straight answers about what’s needed and what it costs—no surprises, no upselling.
First, we inspect your property to identify all flea activity areas—not just where you’ve noticed them. Fleas hide in carpets, pet bedding, cracks in floors, and outdoor areas where your pets spend time. We map out the entire infestation to ensure nothing gets missed.
Next, we apply targeted treatments that eliminate fleas at every stage: eggs, larvae, pupae, and adults. This is critical because standard treatments often miss the cocoon stage, leading to re-infestation weeks later. Our professional-grade products and application methods ensure complete elimination.
We treat both indoor and outdoor areas because fleas don’t respect boundaries. Your yard, especially areas with sandy soil common in Port Lonesome, can harbor flea populations that continuously re-infest your home. We address the source, not just the symptoms you’re seeing inside.
Ready to get started?
Your flea control service includes comprehensive indoor treatment of all carpeted areas, upholstery, pet bedding, and cracks where fleas hide. We use safe, effective products that won’t harm your pets or family while eliminating the entire flea population.
Outdoor treatment covers your yard, especially areas with the sandy soil typical in Port Lonesome where fleas thrive. We focus on shaded areas under decks, around foundations, and anywhere your pets spend time. This prevents outdoor flea populations from re-infesting your home.
Follow-up service ensures complete elimination. Because flea cocoons can hatch weeks after initial treatment, we return to address any remaining activity. You’re not left guessing whether the treatment worked—we guarantee complete elimination with ongoing support until your flea problem is resolved.
Professional flea extermination typically requires 2-3 treatments spaced 2-3 weeks apart to completely eliminate all life stages. The initial treatment kills adult fleas and larvae immediately, but flea cocoons are resistant to all treatments and must hatch before they can be eliminated.
This is why you might see some flea activity 1-2 weeks after the first treatment—it’s not treatment failure, it’s cocoons hatching. The follow-up treatments eliminate these newly hatched fleas before they can reproduce. Most customers see dramatic improvement within 48 hours of the first treatment, with complete elimination achieved after the full treatment cycle.
DIY treatments often fail because homeowners don’t understand this lifecycle and give up after the first application when they see continued activity.
Yes, our professional flea treatments are specifically designed to be safe for homes with pets and children when applied correctly. We use EPA-approved products and follow strict application protocols that eliminate fleas while protecting your family.
The key difference between professional and DIY treatments is proper product selection and application technique. We know which products work effectively at lower concentrations, reducing exposure while maintaining effectiveness. We also know exactly where to apply treatments for maximum impact with minimal contact areas.
During treatment, pets and children should be out of treated areas until products dry (typically 2-4 hours). After that, treated areas are safe for normal use. We provide detailed post-treatment instructions to ensure your family’s safety while eliminating your flea problem completely.
Regular household fleas don’t typically live in beach sand, but they thrive in the sandy soil around Port Lonesome homes, especially in shaded, moist areas. The sandy soil common throughout Hillsborough County provides ideal conditions for flea larvae development when combined with organic matter like grass clippings or pet waste.
Fleas prefer areas under decks, around foundations, and in landscaped beds where the sandy soil stays moist and provides protection. Your pets can pick up fleas from these outdoor areas and bring them inside, starting an infestation cycle.
This is why effective flea control in Port Lonesome requires treating both indoor and outdoor areas. Eliminating indoor fleas without addressing outdoor breeding areas leads to continuous re-infestation. Our comprehensive approach treats the sandy soil areas where fleas develop, breaking the cycle completely.
Getting fleas out of carpet requires understanding that what you see jumping around represents only about 5% of the total flea population. The other 95% consists of eggs, larvae, and pupae hidden deep in carpet fibers, which is why vacuuming and DIY sprays often fail.
Professional carpet flea treatment uses specialized equipment to penetrate deep into carpet fibers where flea eggs and larvae hide. We apply treatments that eliminate all life stages, not just adult fleas. The products we use also include growth regulators that prevent flea development, breaking the reproduction cycle.
Vacuuming helps but isn’t enough on its own. The vibration actually stimulates flea cocoons to hatch, which is why you might see more fleas after vacuuming. Professional treatment takes advantage of this by applying elimination products right after agitation, catching newly hatched fleas before they can reproduce.
Professional flea treatment addresses the complete flea lifecycle with products and techniques not available to consumers. DIY treatments typically only kill adult fleas you can see, missing 95% of the population in egg, larvae, and pupae stages hidden in carpets and cracks.
Professional treatments use commercial-grade products that eliminate all life stages, including growth regulators that prevent development from eggs to adults. We also have the equipment and knowledge to apply treatments where fleas actually live and reproduce, not just where you notice them.
The biggest difference is understanding flea biology and behavior. We know that seeing fleas 1-2 weeks after treatment is normal (cocoons hatching) and plan follow-up treatments accordingly. DIY attempts often fail because homeowners think the treatment didn’t work when they see continued activity, not realizing this is part of the elimination process.
Yes, yard flea spray service is a crucial part of effective flea control in Port Lonesome. Your outdoor areas, especially the sandy soil common throughout the area, can harbor significant flea populations that continuously re-infest your home even after indoor treatment.
We focus on areas where fleas actually develop: shaded spots under decks, around foundations, near pet areas, and in landscaped beds where organic matter accumulates. These areas provide the moisture and protection flea larvae need to develop in Florida’s climate.
Our yard treatment uses professional products designed for outdoor flea elimination that remain effective even with Florida’s frequent rain. We coordinate indoor and outdoor treatments to eliminate the entire flea population simultaneously, preventing the cycle of re-infestation that makes DIY treatments ineffective.
