You’re tired of watching your pets scratch constantly. Tired of finding those tiny black specks in your carpet. Tired of waking up with itchy red bumps on your ankles.
Here’s what changes when you get real flea control. Your pets stop the endless scratching and start acting like themselves again. Your carpets become safe spaces instead of flea nurseries. Your family sleeps through the night without mysterious bites.
The difference isn’t just fewer fleas—it’s getting your home back. No more checking every shadow for jumping pests. No more embarrassment when guests come over. Just a comfortable, pest-free environment where your family and pets can relax.
We’ve been protecting families in Sturkey and throughout Pasco County for years. We’re not some big corporate chain—you’ll work directly with the owner every time.
Our state-certified technicians understand Florida’s unique flea challenges. In Sturkey’s warm, humid climate, fleas don’t take winter breaks like they do up north. They breed year-round, which is why you need someone who knows how to break their cycle completely.
We answer our phones 24/7, even weekends. Most quotes happen right over the phone. When you’re dealing with a flea problem, waiting until Monday isn’t an option—and neither is getting bounced around to different technicians who don’t know your situation.
First, we inspect your entire property—inside and out. Fleas hide in carpets, pet bedding, yard debris, and shaded areas under decks. We find every breeding site, not just the obvious ones.
Next comes targeted treatment. We use professional-grade products that kill adult fleas, larvae, and eggs. Your pets’ favorite spots get special attention because that’s where flea populations explode. We treat indoor carpets, furniture, and baseboards, plus outdoor areas where your pets spend time.
Finally, we set up prevention. Florida’s climate means fleas can restart their cycle quickly. We’ll show you how to maintain a flea-free environment and schedule follow-ups to catch any survivors before they become a new problem. Most customers see dramatic results within 24-48 hours, with complete elimination typically achieved within two weeks.

Our flea control service covers your entire property. Inside, we treat all carpeted areas, upholstered furniture, pet bedding areas, and baseboards where flea eggs accumulate. We use products specifically chosen for homes with pets and children.
Outside, we focus on shaded, humid areas where fleas thrive in Sturkey’s climate. Under decks, around trees, in mulched beds, and anywhere your pets rest or play. These outdoor breeding sites are often overlooked but critical for long-term control.
You’ll also receive a detailed prevention plan. In Pasco County’s warm weather, fleas can restart their lifecycle in just two weeks if conditions are right. We’ll explain which areas need regular attention, how to maintain your yard to discourage flea development, and when to call us back for follow-up treatments. Every service includes a guarantee—if fleas return within our coverage period, so do we, at no additional charge.
Most customers see a significant reduction in flea activity within 24-48 hours after treatment. Complete elimination typically takes 10-14 days because we need to break the entire flea lifecycle.
Here’s why it takes time: adult fleas die quickly from our treatment, but eggs and pupae can take up to two weeks to hatch and then contact the treated surfaces. This is normal and expected—seeing some fleas during the second week doesn’t mean the treatment failed. It means the lifecycle is running its course.
We schedule a follow-up inspection around day 14 to ensure complete elimination. If you’re still seeing fleas after two weeks, we return at no charge to assess and retreat if necessary.
Regular fleas don’t actually live in beach sand—that’s a different pest called sand fleas or no-see-ums. However, cat and dog fleas can survive in sandy soil around your home, especially if it stays moist and shaded.
In Sturkey’s climate, fleas prefer areas with organic matter like leaf litter, mulch, or pet waste mixed with sandy soil. These spots stay humid enough for flea development even during dry periods.
Our outdoor treatment targets these sandy areas specifically. We apply residual products that continue working for weeks, and we’ll show you how to modify these areas to make them less flea-friendly. Simple changes like improving drainage or removing debris can prevent future infestations.
Yes, when applied by licensed professionals. We use EPA-registered products specifically designed for indoor use around families and pets. Our technicians are state-certified and trained in safe application methods.
During treatment, we ask that pets and children stay out of treated areas until surfaces are dry—usually 2-4 hours. Once dry, treated areas are safe for normal use. We can also provide eco-friendly treatment options for families with specific concerns.
We always explain exactly what products we’re using and provide safety data sheets if requested. Many of our clients have multiple pets, young children, or family members with sensitivities, and we adjust our approach accordingly without compromising effectiveness.
Carpet flea elimination requires a multi-step approach because eggs and larvae hide deep in carpet fibers where sprays can’t reach them effectively.
We start with thorough vacuuming to remove adult fleas, eggs, and debris. Then we apply professional carpet treatments that penetrate deep into fibers and continue working for weeks. The products we use have residual effects that kill newly hatched fleas before they can reproduce.
For severe infestations, we may recommend steam cleaning before treatment to remove flea dirt and debris, followed by our professional application. We’ll also show you ongoing vacuuming techniques that help prevent reinfestations. The key is treating the carpet as part of a whole-house approach, not just focusing on the obvious problem areas.
Professional treatment uses commercial-grade products not available to consumers, plus we have the experience to identify all breeding sites and treat them effectively in one visit.
DIY treatments often fail because store-bought sprays don’t penetrate deep enough into carpets and upholstery, and most people miss outdoor breeding areas entirely. Flea bombs might kill some adults but rarely affect eggs and larvae, leading to reinfestations within weeks.
We also understand flea biology and lifecycle timing. Knowing when to retreat, which products work best in Florida’s climate, and how to modify your environment for long-term prevention makes the difference between temporary relief and complete elimination. Most of our customers tried DIY methods first—we’re usually their solution when those approaches didn’t work.
For active infestations, most homes need one comprehensive treatment followed by a two-week follow-up inspection. If you maintain good prevention practices, annual treatments are often sufficient for most Sturkey homes.
However, Florida’s year-round flea season means some properties need quarterly maintenance, especially if you have multiple outdoor pets or your yard has ideal flea conditions like heavy shade and organic debris.
We customize the schedule based on your specific situation. Homes with indoor-only pets typically need less frequent service than properties with dogs that spend lots of time outside. We’ll assess your property and pet situation to recommend the most cost-effective maintenance schedule that keeps your home flea-free year-round.
