How to Kill and Get Rid of Fleas in your
House and on your Pets
1. You must treat your pets and your house for fleas on the
same day.
2. First vacuum your house thoroughly. That includes under
beds and furniture. Use the vacuum nozzle attachment for
corners, crevices and around baseboards.
3. Spray all floors, rugs and pet bedding with an insecticide
that contains IGR. You can use an aerosol spray, pump spray, flea
bomb or fogger but it must contain the ingredient IGR. This is
very important.
4. If your pet goes outside you will also have to spray
outside the house. You can use the same insecticide that you use
inside the house. Spray patios, kennels, gravel and sandy areas.
You do not need to spray areas such as lawns or areas in
sunlight. If your pet goes under your house you may also need to
spray there.
5. Wash all pet bedding and hang in sun to dry or dry in the
clothes dryer.
6. Treat your pets with a top spot flea control such as
Advantage, Revolution or Frontline. Don't waste your time or
money using other treatments such as shampoos, powders or dips.
That's flea control for your house and pets in a nutshell.
The most important things to remember are:
You must treat your house and pets on
the same day. You must use an insecticide that contains IGR.
