You’ll sleep better knowing those jumping, biting pests are gone for good. No more constant scratching from your pets, no more red welts on your ankles, no more worrying about fleas multiplying in your carpets and furniture.
Within 24-48 hours of our professional treatment, you’ll notice the adult flea activity dropping significantly. Your pets will stop that incessant scratching, and you can walk through your home without getting bitten.
The real peace of mind comes from knowing we’ve targeted every stage of the flea life cycle. While other treatments only kill the adults you can see, our approach eliminates the eggs and larvae hiding in your carpets, ensuring they can’t develop into the next generation of biters.
Around The Clock Pest Service has been protecting Wesley Chapel families from pest problems for years. As a family-owned business, you work directly with the owner—not some faceless corporation.
We understand Wesley Chapel’s unique challenges with Florida’s year-round flea season. Unlike northern states that get a winter break from fleas, our warm, humid climate means these pests stay active all year, breeding continuously in the perfect conditions our area provides.
You get our personal cell phone number, same-day service when possible, and the kind of honest communication that only comes from a business that depends on local reputation. We’re state-certified, BBB accredited, and backed by over 100 five-star Google reviews from your neighbors.
First, we inspect your property to identify flea species, locate breeding sites, and assess the full extent of your infestation. We check both indoor areas like carpets, furniture, and pet bedding, plus outdoor spaces where fleas thrive in shaded, humid spots.
Next comes the targeted treatment using professional-grade insecticides and growth regulators that target all life stages. We treat carpeted areas, furniture crevices, baseboards, and outdoor areas where your pets spend time, creating a comprehensive barrier against reinfestation.
Follow-up visits are scheduled 10-14 days apart to break the flea reproductive cycle completely. This timing is crucial because some fleas will be in the pupal stage during the initial treatment, emerging later only to contact our residual products and die within hours.

Our flea control service covers both indoor and outdoor treatment using EPA-approved products safe for families and pets. We target carpets, upholstered furniture, pet bedding, baseboards, and all the hidden spots where flea eggs and larvae develop.
In Wesley Chapel’s climate, outdoor treatment is essential since fleas thrive in our shaded, humid areas year-round. We treat your yard’s problem spots, especially areas under porches, around shrubs, and anywhere your pets rest outside.
You receive detailed preparation instructions, temporary evacuation guidance for safety, and a clear timeline for when it’s safe to return. Most treatments require you and your pets to stay out for 2-3 hours while products dry and settle.
The initial treatment typically takes 2-3 hours depending on your home’s size and the severity of the infestation. However, complete flea elimination requires 2-3 treatments spaced 10-14 days apart to address all life stages effectively.
You’ll see significant reduction in adult flea activity within 24-48 hours of the first treatment. Some flea activity may continue for 7-14 days as pupae emerge from their cocoons, but these newly emerged fleas die quickly when they contact our residual treatment.
The entire process spans approximately 30 days for severe infestations, but most Wesley Chapel homes see dramatic improvement after the second treatment.
True sand fleas are actually small crustaceans that live exclusively in coastal beach environments and don’t infest homes or pets. What most people call “sand fleas” in residential areas are actually regular fleas that thrive in sandy, shaded spots around your property.
In Wesley Chapel’s sandy soil, regular fleas find perfect breeding conditions in areas with organic debris, pet waste, and moisture. These spots include under decks, around shrubs, in leaf litter, and anywhere your pets rest outdoors.
Our outdoor treatment specifically targets these sandy, shaded areas where fleas develop, preventing them from jumping onto your pets and entering your home. We focus on the environmental conditions that allow fleas to complete their life cycle in your yard.
Yes, our flea treatments use EPA-approved products specifically designed for homes with families and pets. We follow strict safety protocols and provide clear guidance on evacuation periods and when it’s safe to return.
During treatment, you and your pets need to stay out of treated areas for 2-3 hours while products dry completely. Once dry, the treatment creates a safe, residual barrier that kills fleas on contact without posing risks to your family.
We coordinate with your veterinarian’s flea prevention program to ensure your pets receive comprehensive protection. Many pet flea treatments work synergistically with our environmental treatments, providing faster, more complete elimination.
Store-bought flea products typically only kill adult fleas, leaving eggs and larvae to continue the infestation cycle. In Wesley Chapel’s year-round breeding climate, this partial approach means new fleas keep emerging every few weeks.
Professional treatments use insect growth regulators that prevent eggs and larvae from developing into adults, breaking the reproductive cycle completely. We also have access to more potent formulations and application equipment that reaches deep into carpet fibers and furniture crevices where fleas hide.
Most DIY attempts miss critical outdoor breeding areas and don’t account for the precise timing needed to eliminate all life stages. Our follow-up schedule is specifically designed to catch newly emerged fleas before they can reproduce.
Flea control costs vary based on your home’s size, infestation severity, and whether outdoor treatment is needed. Most Wesley Chapel homes require both indoor and outdoor treatment due to our climate conditions.
We provide upfront pricing with no hidden fees, and most clients find professional treatment more cost-effective than repeatedly buying ineffective over-the-counter products. Our treatments come with service guarantees, so if fleas persist after our recommended treatment plan, we return at no additional cost.
We offer special discounts for new homeowners and military families, plus flexible scheduling to work around your family’s needs. Call us for a free assessment and detailed pricing based on your specific situation.
Before our arrival, vacuum all carpeted areas, furniture, and pet bedding thoroughly to remove flea eggs and stimulate pupae to emerge from their cocoons. Wash all pet bedding in hot water and clear clutter from floors in treatment areas.
Remove or cover pet food and water dishes, and arrange for your pets to be out of the home during treatment. If you have fish tanks or bird cages, cover them or move them to untreated areas.
We provide a detailed preparation checklist when you schedule service, plus we’re available to answer any questions about getting your Wesley Chapel home ready for effective treatment. Proper preparation significantly improves treatment effectiveness and speeds up the elimination process.
