Our experienced technicians use proven methods to eliminate fleas at every life stage, ensuring your family and pets can live comfortably again.
Why Longwood Has a Fleas Problem
Longwood's dense residential areas, including the many apartment complexes along Longwood Avenue and Southern Boulevard, can be particularly susceptible to flea problems, especially in buildings with multiple pet-owning families. Our team is familiar with treating homes near local landmarks like St. Ignatius School and Longwood Park, ensuring discreet and effective service for this close-knit community.
Why Choose Us for Flea Treatment in Longwood
Flea infestations require treating all life stages simultaneously — adult fleas are only about 5% of the population at any time, with eggs, larvae, and pupae hiding in carpets, furniture, and pet bedding making up the other 95%. Our treatment protocol covers all interior floor surfaces with a combination of adulticide (to kill adults on contact) and insect growth regulator (IGR) to prevent eggs and larvae from developing into biting adults. We treat pet resting areas with particular thoroughness, and advise on concurrent pet treatment with your veterinarian to prevent re-infestation from the animal. Every service includes a service agreement — terms depend on the service and are confirmed on the call.

Flea Treatment in Longwood — FAQs
How much does flea treatment cost in Longwood?▾
Flea treatment in Longwood typically ranges from $350 to $650, depending on the size of your home, the severity of the infestation, and the number of rooms requiring treatment. We provide free inspections and transparent quotes before beginning any work.
How long does flea treatment take to work?▾
You'll notice a significant reduction in flea activity within 24-48 hours after treatment. However, complete elimination typically takes 2-3 weeks as treatments address eggs and larvae that continue to hatch. We often recommend a follow-up treatment to ensure all life stages are eliminated.
Do I need to leave my Longwood apartment during flea treatment?▾
Yes, we recommend that all people and pets vacate the premises for 2-4 hours during and immediately after treatment. You'll receive specific instructions based on the products used, but your safety is our top priority, and our treatments are pet-safe once dried.
Can fleas come back after professional treatment?▾
While our treatments are highly effective, re-infestation can occur if fleas are reintroduced by pets, wildlife, or neighboring units in apartment buildings. We offer preventative maintenance plans and will work with you to identify and address potential sources of re-infestation to keep your Longwood home flea-free.
