Our Flea Extermination Process
Fleas multiply fast, so treatment must address each stage of the lifecycle.
Here's how we tackle flea control:
- Flea inspection. I begin with a detailed inspection of your home and yard to determine how severe the infestation is. You might spot fleas on your pets or see flea dirt in the house. I find where fleas are hiding and breeding so treatment is targeted and thorough.
- Interior treatment. After identifying hot spots, I use insect growth regulators (IGRs) and residual materials where fleas are active. These treatments kill adult fleas and interrupt breeding, offering protection for up to 4–6 months. I target places like pet beds, under furniture, and in hard-to-reach areas, including bathroom grout.
- Exterior treatment. Fleas can jump from the yard into your home, so outdoor treatment is essential. I apply granulated insecticides and liquid residuals to the yard and areas your pets visit often. This step prevents fleas from reentering and acts as an important extension of your overall pest management routine.
Lubbock's climate—hot, dry days and cooler nights—influences how fleas breed in outdoor spaces. I adjust treatments as seasons change, so you get results that match local flea activity cycles. I also follow all Lubbock County pesticide regulations, ensuring each step of your flea control in Lubbock meets city and county requirements.

Signs of a Flea Infestation
Wondering if fleas have moved in? Look out for these common signs:
- Flea dirt. Small black specks that look like pepper grains. You’ll often find these on your pet or in their bedding. Flea dirt is actually flea feces and signals the presence of fleas.
- Pet scratching. Fleas cause pets to itch and scratch, often more than usual. Watch for increased scratching or biting, which could point to a flea issue in your home.
- Bites on humans. Fleas bite people, not just pets. Red, itchy marks usually appear around ankles or lower legs, which are common bite sites for fleas in the house.
- Visible fleas. You might see fleas jumping on your pet's fur or elsewhere in your home, especially in spaces where pets rest most often.
If you notice any of these signs, call for a flea inspection. Early detection and treatment help keep problems from spreading out of control.

Home Tips for Preventing Flea & Tick Infestations
While professional treatment resolves flea and tick issues, a few simple habits at home help keep pests from becoming a problem.
Prevention succeeds when you understand your property and the local environment. In Lubbock, long stretches of hot, dry weather allow fleas to thrive in shaded and overgrown yards. By checking for activity during peak months—usually May through September—you address small problems before they grow. Easy steps like frequent pet checks and extra cleaning as temperatures rise make a real difference in keeping fleas under control.
Here are some practical tips to keep fleas and ticks in check:
- Regular grooming. Give your pets regular baths and comb them frequently. This removes fleas early and prevents them from spreading elsewhere in the home. If you have questions about grooming for flea control, I provide guidance during visits.
- Vacuuming often. Fleas lay eggs and larvae on carpets, furniture, and other soft places. Frequent vacuuming, especially in areas your pets hang out, removes these stages and makes it harder for fleas to multiply. If you need help spotting problem areas, I can share tips during a visit.
- Wash bedding and toys. Fleas hide in pet bedding and toys. Wash these items regularly to eliminate hiding spots and lower your chances of infestation. I’ll recommend the best cleaning schedules during your flea treatment plan.
- Maintain your yard. Fleas thrive in overgrown grass and piles of yard debris, so clean up outside spaces. Keeping the lawn mowed and free of debris removes breeding spots. My outdoor treatments target these problem areas to help stop fleas from coming back.
Pricing & What to Expect From Flea Pest Control

I start with a thorough inspection and provide a free estimate that covers recommended treatments and costs.

In Lubbock, all providers must use licensed, approved products and follow local rules, which can affect scheduling or fees.

Treatments usually take a few hours, and I always explain how to prepare and what to expect. Over my years serving Lubbock families, I’ve seen how open communication prevents surprises.
