Carpets & Area Rugs

Still Seeing Fleas After Treating Your Pet? You're Not Doing Anything Wrong.
Only about 5% of a flea population ever lives on your pet. The rest is in your carpets, baseboards, and yard — which is why spot-treating the pet alone rarely works. We treat the whole property, not just the animal.

All of them should be checked and treated for fleas at the same time according to your veterinarian’s recommendations. If even one pet remains untreated, fleas can continue reproducing and reinfest the home.
How long does it take for the improvement to become noticeable?
Most customers notice improvement within a few days (hidden eggs and pupae can continue developing). Some flea activity may remain for 1–2 weeks. Follow-up treatment may be needed to fully break the life cycle.

Know Where They're Hiding
Common Flea & Tick Hotspots In and Around Your Home
Fleas and ticks don't spread evenly through a property — they concentrate in a handful of predictable spots. Finding those spots is what separates a lasting fix from a treatment that only knocks back what you can see.
Pet Bedding & Furniture
The closest thing to a flea nest most homes have. It's one of the first places we inspect, and one of the easiest to miss with store-bought sprays.
Baseboards & Cracks
Flea larvae actively move away from light, burrowing into edges and gaps where a vacuum or a surface spray never reaches.
Shaded Yard & Mulch Beds
Outdoors, fleas and ticks favor cool, humid ground — under decks, in mulch beds, and along shaded fence lines where pets pass through.
Tall Grass & Fence Lines
Ticks in particular wait on grass blades and low vegetation for a host to brush past — no jumping required, just contact.
Garages & Vehicle Interiors
Pets that ride in the car or rest in the garage can carry activity into spaces a home-only treatment plan never touches.

Why It Takes More Than One Visit
What to Expect After Your Flea & Tick Treatment
Fleas have a pupal stage protected inside a cocoon that resists treatment until it hatches — triggered by vibration, heat, or nearby movement. That's biology, not a sign the treatment didn't work. For a strong infestation, our standard protocol is three treatments spaced about 15 days apart, with activity tapering off as each wave of pupae hatches and makes contact with the product.
Initial Treatment
Some activity may continue as newly hatched fleas make contact with the product for the first time.
Second Treatment
Targets fleas that have hatched from protected pupae since the first visit — this step is what most one-time treatments skip.
Third Treatment
Addresses the final wave of hatching pupae, completing the break in the life cycle rather than just knocking back what's visible.
What Helps Speed It Up
Vacuuming daily and washing pet bedding in hot water physically removes eggs and larvae, and the vibration helps pupae hatch sooner.
We don't promise fleas disappear after one visit — the biology doesn't
allow it. What we do promise is a program explained upfront, so you know
exactly what to expect at each stage.

Fleas and ticks are not just an itchy nuisance — they are a health risk to your family and pets. Fleas can cause flea allergy dermatitis and tapeworms, while ticks can transmit Lyme disease, ehrlichiosis, and other serious illnesses. In Florida’s year-round warm climate, an untreated infestation can spread from a single pet to your entire home and yard within weeks.
Frequently Asked Questions about Flea and Tick Control and Extermination
How do I know if I have a flea or tick infestation?
Common signs include pets scratching, biting, or licking excessively, small dark specks (flea dirt) in pet bedding, red itchy bites on ankles and legs, and ticks found on pets or people after time outdoors. If you notice any of these, a professional inspection is recommended.
Why isn't treating my pet enough to stop fleas?
Only about 5% of a flea population lives on your pet. The other 95% — eggs, larvae, and pupae — is in your carpets, bedding, furniture, and yard. Treating the pet without treating the environment leaves that population to hatch and reinfest, which is why professional control targets the whole life cycle.
What is included in a professional flea and tick treatment?
A typical service includes a full inspection, identification of breeding and resting areas, targeted interior treatment (carpets, baseboards, pet areas), exterior yard treatment, follow-up visits, and prevention recommendations. At Pestmaster Services of Orlando, our programs are designed to reduce activity, break the life cycle, and help prevent reinfestation.
How many visits are needed for flea and tick control?
Because of the flea life cycle, more than one visit is usually required. A follow-up treatment is typically scheduled to eliminate newly hatched fleas before they can reproduce. The exact number depends on the level of activity, the size of the property, and whether pets are present.
Do you treat the yard as well as inside the home?
Yes. Fleas and ticks thrive in shaded, humid outdoor areas — under decks, in tall grass, along fence lines, and where pets rest. We treat both the interior and the exterior so the infestation is controlled at every source, not just indoors.
Are your flea and tick treatments safe for my pets and children?
Yes. We use EPA-registered products applied according to label directions by FDACS-licensed technicians. Once treated areas are fully dry, they are safe for children and pets to re-enter. Your technician will give you specific re-entry guidance for your service.
Do you offer flea and tick service in Spanish?
Yes. We are a fully bilingual company and provide service, communication, and reporting in both English and Spanish.
How should I prepare my home before a flea and tick treatment?
Vacuum carpets, rugs, and furniture, wash pet bedding in hot water, and pick up clutter from floors so the treatment can reach hiding areas. Keep pets treated with a vet-recommended product. Your technician will confirm any additional prep when scheduling.
How much does flea and tick extermination cost?
The cost depends on the size of the home and yard, the level of infestation, and the number of visits needed. Flea and tick service starts at $295, with the final price confirmed after a brief assessment. Call Pestmaster Services of Orlando at (407) 818-5872 for a free estimate.
Do businesses and rental properties need flea and tick control?
Yes. Apartments, vacation rentals, kennels, veterinary offices, and properties with pets or wildlife are especially prone to flea and tick problems. Our commercial flea and tick programs identify the source, treat affected areas, and recommend prevention to protect tenants, guests, employees, and your reputation across Orlando, Kissimmee, and Central Florida.
