FAQ

Fleas & Ticks: common questions

Why are fleas back after I treated my pet?

Most of a flea population lives as eggs and larvae in carpets and bedding, so the home usually needs treating too.

Do you do the treatment yourselves?

No. EmergencyExterminators is a referral service. The pest control company you speak with does the work and agrees the details with you directly.
