OrthoHome Defense Max Bed Bug Killer - Also Kills Fleas & Brown Dog Ticks, Spot Treatment, 18 oz

I cannot say enough good about this product. I have had flea problems in the past and I know what a task it is and how to get rid of them. It is no easy chore. One of the most difficult parts, is finding a product that actually works. I know how to prep before spraying or fogging. It is essential that you vacuum and vacuum well and pull furniture out from walls before you bomb or use any type of flea product. So of course I did that. I truly had an infestation at this point in time. You couldn't be in the room for more than a minute and they were crawling all over your legs. It was awful at night during the day all the time it was just getting worse. It got out of control in less than a week. So I have ordered exterminators to come to the house in the past. And they have had to come back multiple times to get rid of the flea problem. It's just one of those issues that you know it's going to be a while to get rid of. At least in my experience. I did my research and I believe Precor Foggers are one of the best Foggers on the market. But there again you'll probably have to use the product after 2 weeks of using the product the first time. But I am not for sure on this as it is my first time that I have purchased procore Foggers. While waiting for the Foggers to get to the house with a 3-day delivery I became impatient and noticed that I could buy the product bed bug and flea control and have it delivered the same day. To boot it was only 20 bucks. What could I have to lose. At least I could spray the damn bed and carpet and maybe get one night of sleep without getting attacked by bed bugs. That was all that I expected out of this cheap product or so I thought. I truly cannot say enough good things about this product. As I said I am currently waiting for my father's to arrive which will be tomorrow. At this point I honestly don't even know if I need them. I can't even believe that I am saying that right now. I bought one gallon and I addressed two of the rooms that were most significant with the flea infestation. I vacuumed very well pulled everything out from the walls and began spraying. I am telling you that within 2 hours I did not feel a thing crawling or see anything jumping around. I do not even believe my own words right now. I have adequate adequately sprayed both rooms with one gallon and even had a chance to do the hallways in the house that I was walking to and from those rooms. Just to make certain. I cannot find one damn flea in this house. I am simply amazed and flabbergasted that this product has single-handedly combated my infestation of two rooms with only one gallon and even had left over to do area rugs in the hallways. There is not one bug living in this house. There is not one bug on my dog. There is not one bug in my bed. I slept like a baby last night without any interference for the first time in weeks. I was able to walk around my room this morning and not a single flea had jumped on me not one nor have I been able to find one anywhere in this house. I simply have to say this product is an absolute winner and a must buy. I have stubborn fleas I always do when I get an infestation it was due to negligence of my roommate who forgot to put flea spray on his cats for 2 months and brought fleas into the house and it quickly developed into an infestation Within those two months then it was attacking my dog who I give advantage to and never has fleas my dog began to get infested even while taking the advantage monthly application and I've had to give him two or three flea baths a week to keep up so when I tell you it was an infestation I do not make light of the situation. I have had them before in my life and know how difficult it is to get rid of. I I'm not sure if I will have to reapply in 2 weeks but at this point I couldn't be happier. I did buy another gallon just to make sure I have it on hand at all times for 20 bucks who would be stupid enough not to buy this A1 product. Don't waste your money with any other more expensive or powders or other products this was the easiest thing I've ever done in my life. It couldn't have been more effective and the price you can't beat do yourself a favor save yourself the headaches get the same day delivery like I did and put your troubles to rest you will not be disappointed this stuff is fantastic my hat's off to ortho for a fine product better than the exterminators I've had in the past by far I just don't understand how this product has surpassed all others that I've used in all other services that I've used hands down the best.

I have several cats and I didn't know we had fleas. My Shark vacuum broke and while I waited for parts to come, my house became infested. My cats were acting crazy by sleeping in my top loader washer, in my shower, and on my kitchen table. It was so bad that fleas were crawling all over me and even got in my bed. I didn't know why I had an itchy rash on my legs and why my legs were starting to swell. I took a flea comb and ran it through one of my cats and it had tons of fleas crawling on the comb. We had a major infestation. I was mortified!From what I've read if you have a problem this bad you will need an exterminator. That was not an option for me. I just couldn't afford that kind of expense. I had to find a way I could do something that wouldn't kill my cats. You will need a powerful vacuum before you start. Preferably something with a HEPA filter. You will need to vacuum "at least 3 times as long as you normally would" before you start. The vibration of the vacuuming makes the larvae hatch so be prepared. You may need to spray at least (the carpet) every 2 weeks with Ortho because they will keep hatching. I suggest getting 2 bottles of Ortho to start if your problem is this bad. I am already on my 4th bottle but the fleas are almost gone. Vacuum the hard floors too. Vacuum as often as you have time for and for longer than you normally would.Shake the bottle well before each time you spray. Ortho has a pleasant smell. When I would come home from work I was shocked at how nice my house smelled. There was not a nasty chemical smell to this stuff. After the first spray things got way under control and I wasn't loaded with bites anymore.I bought this and Tekko Pro IGR with a cheap hand-pump garden sprayer. I made a gallon of Tekko Pro in the garden sprayer and locked up my cats. I vacuumed the whole house and scrubbed all the hard floors first with pine cleaner. Dump your vacuum outside and never leave dirt in your vacuum. As I cleaned sections of the house I sprayed both the Tekko Pro and the Ortho on the the whole carpet and hard floors. I took my foot and rubbed it into the carpet and made sure it was damp. I have several box fans and turbo fans and blew them at the floor to dry it. I have ceiling fans and I turned them on too. You want this stuff to dry. I even sprayed the sides of my mattress and box spring like you would for bed bugs.I bought Nitenpyram powder and capsules (generic Capstar) and learned how much I should put in a capsule. That pill is given daily. I also bought Lufenuron capsules and powder and learned how much should go in a #4 capsule for cats. I mark on the calendar when I give the Lufenuron because that one is given monthly. If you do these things you will really get your problem under control. There is way less scratching and chewing going on with my cats. I keep combing them looking for fleas. It's rare that I even find one flea. The comb is not for removing fleas. It's for checking for fleas and flea dirt. You can NOT use a flea comb and think this will eliminate your problem. You'll be in a heap of trouble if you don't listen to me.I hope if you have fleas you listen to what I've told you and you can get your problem under control. Make sure you wet down your whole carpet and behind things like dressers and bookcases that you can't move. You can't miss any of the carpet or floors. In open spaces rub it into the carpet with your shoe. Make sure it's dry before you let your cats back in. If you do it in sections it will dry much faster. I even sprayed it on pet beds after vacuuming or washing them. Just make sure they are completely dry before you give them back. You can spray down pet bedding every 2 weeks. You can throw the pet beds in the dryer weekly for 30 minutes too. That makes a big difference.
