  1. Most foggers (bug bombs) cover a specific volume. We have used the Hot Shot foggers in the past and the instructions say that it covers an unobstructed 25'x30' room with an 8' ceiling. You should be safe to use 2 depending on if you follow the directions or not. Always follow the directions carefully and be sure to un-plug or turn off anything that cycles regularly on electricity (A/C, refrigerator, sump pump, etc.) and shut off anything that uses gas and has a flame (pilot light on gas range, water heater, etc.) This is to prevent a potential fire or explosion. The Hot Shot foggers are water based so they don't harm any surfaces. I'm not sure which brand you are using, but you should be fine as long as you read the directions and follow them carefully. Good luck!

    You and you pets need to be out of the house for 2 hours. Also, we came home and opened the windows and let some fresh air in for about another 2 hours or so before we went back in. The Hot Shot foggers are generally safe for families and pets. If this doesn't get your fleas taken care of, you need to call a professional exterminator. They are really difficult to get rid of and way easy to transfer to a new home or to your car. I hope I helped you.

    One more thing, I almost forgot. The fogger says that it works against fleas and the larvae. It does not get rid of eggs, so you will have to do some severe vacuuming and probably treat again in a few days and then again in a couple of weeks. Fleas are one of the most difficult to get rid of because unless a professional comes, the eggs are difficult to get rid of!!!!


  2. No, I'd just do as directed, the two hours.  I tend to hold my breath upon re-entering, until windows get opened, but probably no need.  You'll need to clean anything that has to do with food after the bombing, unless it was in your fridge or pretty tight cabinets.

    Note that the bombing may not kill the flea eggs, only the fleas.  Maybe it'll say on the back, but if that's the case, you may need to bomb twice.
