For some reason my apt has become a breeding ground for either fleas, gnats or both. I've use 7 different cans of foggers, carpet sprays, liquid sprays for fleas and so far nothings working. I can't see them but feel them jumping on my lower legs and biting me so far I've used Zodiac Carpet and furniture spray, 5 cans of Hartz foggers, 2 cans of Hotshot fogger, Hartz Carpet Powder with limited success can anyone give me some idea as to what I can use to get rid of these things?

  1. Is your apartment attached to other apartments? This may be the source..You can fog all you want and it will kill them for a few days..but if your neighbors have them and your apartments are attached to one another..they come from inbetween the walls on the other units..the whole building that all apartments are attached to will need fogged and treated..


  2. Wow!!! Girl, you are going to kill yourself (or your pet, if you have one) if you're not careful! That's a lot of poison to spray inside your home.

    I think it's time to call a professional. They can identify what kind of pest it is, locate the source, and use a specific remedy/ poison to eliminate the pest. Then I'd have your poor carpets deep cleaned, those foggers and powders can leave a nasty residue.

    Good luck sweetie!

  3. Keep your windows and doors closed or install screens. Then, rent a carpet scrubber and wash all carpets in your home. Also, remove any rotting or spoiled food as it attracts gnats. Next, wash your bedding and inspect your mattress.

    Finally, don't try to kill them. You won't get them all.

  4. first of all you got to find your source. It will be useless to fight the symptoms when you dont know where the infection comes from.
