Detailed Flea Treatment Services Offered

Our flea treatment service is designed to provide comprehensive relief from flea infestations. We target fleas at every stage of their life cycle, from eggs and larvae to pupae and adult fleas. Our approach includes:

Inspection and Assessment

We begin with a thorough inspection of your property to identify flea hotspots and assess the extent of the infestation. This allows us to tailor our treatment plan to your specific needs.

Targeted Treatment

We use a combination of treatments, including insecticides and insect growth regulators, to effectively eliminate fleas. Our treatments are applied to areas where fleas are most likely to be found, such as carpets, upholstery, and pet bedding. If you have rodents on your property, check out our rodent control services as they can carry fleas.

Indoor Flea Treatment

Our indoor flea control services address fleas hiding within your home's interior. We focus on treating carpets, rugs, furniture, and pet sleeping areas. Treatment types deployed will include, but are not limited to:

Application of Insecticides

We apply safe and effective insecticides to kill adult fleas and disrupt their life cycle. These insecticides are designed to penetrate deep into carpets and upholstery, reaching fleas where they hide.

Insect Growth Regulators (IGRs)

IGRs prevent flea larvae from developing into adults, effectively breaking the flea life cycle and preventing re-infestation.

Outdoor Flea Treatment

Fleas don't just live indoors. They also thrive in your lawn, garden, and other outdoor areas. Our outdoor flea treatment services create a barrier around your property, preventing fleas from entering your home. Here's what an outdoor flea treatment is like:

Yard Spraying

We treat your yard with insecticides that target fleas and other pests, such as ticks. This creates a pest-free zone around your home, reducing the risk of fleas entering your property.

Barrier Treatments

We apply barrier treatments around the perimeter of your property to prevent fleas from crossing into your yard.

Follow-Up Services

We provide follow-up services to ensure that the flea infestation has been completely eliminated and to prevent re-infestation. This may include additional treatments or recommendations for preventing future infestations.

Educating Customers

We educate our customers on how to prevent flea infestations and maintain a pest-free environment. This includes tips on proper sanitation, pet care, and yard maintenance. Should you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out!

Why Professional Flea Treatment Matters

While DIY flea control methods may provide temporary relief, they often fail to address the underlying causes of the infestation. Professional flea treatment ensures that fleas are completely eliminated and that your home remains pest-free. Contact us at (909) 259-1205 for more information.

Common Problems That Indicate You Need Flea Treatment

Recognizing the signs of a flea infestation early can help you take action before the problem becomes overwhelming. Here are some common issues that indicate you may need flea treatment:

Excessive Pet Scratching

Constant scratching, biting, and grooming in pets are often the first signs of a flea infestation. Flea bites cause intense itching and irritation, leading pets to scratch excessively. If your pet is showing these symptoms, it's essential to inspect them for fleas and consider flea treatment.

Visible Fleas on Pets

Seeing fleas on your pets is a clear indication of a flea infestation. Fleas are small, dark-colored insects that move quickly through your pet's fur. They are most commonly found around the neck, abdomen, and base of the tail. If you spot fleas on your pet, it's essential to take immediate action to prevent the infestation from spreading to your home.

Flea Dirt

Flea dirt is flea feces, appearing as small, black specks on your pet's fur or bedding. It's a telltale sign of a flea infestation, even if you don't see live fleas. Flea dirt is essentially digested blood, so if you find it on your pet or in their sleeping area, it's time to call a pest control professional.

Bites on Humans

Flea bites on humans are another sign of a flea infestation. Flea bites typically appear as small, red, itchy bumps, often in clusters on the ankles, legs, and arms. While fleas prefer to feed on animals, they will bite humans if no other hosts are available. If you're getting flea bites, it's crucial to address the infestation promptly.

Carpet and Upholstery Infestations

Fleas can infest carpets, rugs, and upholstery, making it difficult to control the infestation. Flea eggs and larvae can hide deep within these materials, making them resistant to DIY treatments. If you suspect fleas are hiding in your carpets or furniture, professional treatment is necessary to eliminate them completely. Contact (909) 259-1205 to schedule an inspection.

Allergic Reactions

Some people and pets are allergic to flea bites, leading to severe skin reactions, such as dermatitis and hair loss. Allergic reactions can cause intense itching, inflammation, and discomfort, requiring medical treatment. If you or your pet are experiencing allergic reactions to flea bites, it's essential to address the flea infestation promptly to prevent further symptoms. If you are near Eastvale, we can help you as well.

Anemia in Pets

In severe flea infestations, pets can develop anemia due to blood loss from flea bites. Anemia can cause weakness, lethargy, and pale gums. If your pet is showing signs of anemia, it's crucial to seek veterinary care and address the flea infestation immediately. A proper flea treatment is necessary to help with this.

Flea Tape Test

The flea tape test is a great way to indicate if fleas are present. Place tape along the carpet to catch any fleas or flea dirt. Watch them latch on for 24 hours before removing the tape. To test if the specs on the tape is flea dirt, try adding water to the tape. The speck should dissipate.

Transmission of Diseases

Fleas can transmit diseases to both pets and humans, including tapeworms and murine typhus. While these diseases are rare, they can cause serious health problems. Preventing flea infestations can help protect your family and pets from these diseases.

More Flea Facts to Chew On (Pun Intended)

Fleas are not just a nuisance; they're a persistent problem that requires a comprehensive understanding of their life cycle and habits to effectively control and eliminate. Beyond the basics, there's a wealth of information about fleas that can help homeowners in Ontario, CA, better manage infestations and prevent future outbreaks.

Flea Life Cycle: A Deeper Dive

The flea life cycle consists of four stages: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. Understanding each stage is crucial for effective treatment. Adult fleas live on a host animal and lay eggs, which fall off into the environment, especially in areas where pets spend most of their time. These eggs hatch into larvae, which feed on organic debris and flea dirt (digested blood excreted by adult fleas). The larvae then develop into pupae, encasing themselves in a silken cocoon. Adult fleas emerge from the cocoon when stimulated by vibrations, heat, or carbon dioxide, indicating the presence of a potential host.

Why does this matter? Because if you only target adult fleas, you're missing the majority of the population hiding in your carpets, upholstery, and yard!

Flea Behavior and Habits

Fleas are highly mobile and can jump long distances, allowing them to quickly infest new hosts and environments. They are attracted to warmth, movement, and carbon dioxide, making pets and humans easy targets. Fleas prefer warm, humid environments, which is why they thrive in Ontario, CA, during the spring and summer months. In colder months, they seek shelter indoors, making year-round pest control essential.

Did you know that fleas can survive for several months without a host in the pupal stage? This is why infestations can seem to reappear even after treatment.

Flea-Borne Diseases and Health Risks

Fleas can transmit several diseases to pets and humans, including:

• **Tapeworms:** Pets can become infected by ingesting fleas carrying tapeworm larvae.
• **Murine Typhus:** A bacterial disease transmitted through flea bites, causing flu-like symptoms in humans.
• **Cat Scratch Disease:** Caused by bacteria transmitted through flea bites or scratches from infected cats.
• **Anemia:** Severe flea infestations can cause anemia, especially in young or small animals.

It's important to protect your family and pets from these health risks by controlling flea infestations promptly and effectively.

The Impact of Fleas on Your Home Environment

Beyond the health risks and discomfort, fleas can also have a significant impact on your home environment. Flea infestations can lead to:

• **Damage to Carpets and Upholstery:** Flea larvae feed on organic matter, including carpet fibers and upholstery, causing damage over time.
• **Unpleasant Odors:** Severe flea infestations can produce unpleasant odors due to flea dirt and decomposing organic matter.
• **Stress and Anxiety:** Dealing with a flea infestation can be incredibly stressful and anxiety-inducing, especially for pet owners.
