How can I get rid of the fleas in the yard?! It's a MASSIVE problem...?

Question

My parents just bought a new house and the back yard is infested with fleas. Now they are starting to move into the house and my little brother is now covered in fleas bites. They have used at least 8 flea bombs & my brother in law has treated the backyard once...

are there any other products that work better, or any other solutions in general? They've been spending a lot of money on this stuff w/ no real results!

Answer 1

That's Serious.... All I Can Say Is Close All The Windows & Doors... Water The Yard but Not That Much So That You Won't Have Any Water Stuck & Call 911 & Report It.

Answer 2

Calll an exterminator....

You can use diatamaceous earth also but it might take longer.

YOu can get a spreader and spread on an insecticide  or a sprayer and spray them with a flea killer (check home depot lowes )

here is website i looked up that might help.

Answer 7

you have to get an exterminator and vacate the house.  the yard and the house need professional expertise!

How could they have closed on the house and not seen the infestation during the final walkthrough?  Fleas don't just show up one day!  I'd consider going after the house inspector.

Answer 8

you cant really get rid of outdoor pests because they live outdoors BUT read this about them ... you have to treat your house too.

clean everything out spray and wash your pet put a collar on him then ...treat the outside.
