PETARMOR Home Household Spray for Fleas and Ticks, Flea Treatment for Home, Prevents Flea and Tick Re-Infestations for Cats and Dogs, Treats Carpet, Furniture, and More, 24 Ounce (Pack of 2)

The good news: This stuff really works! For my full story of how I used it, read on. The caveat: You need to be prepared to put the work in. Fleas are resilient, and you can't just apply once and expect that they will disappear. You need to: 1. Bathe your animal if you have one, daily (at least at first) 2. Launder EVERYT HING in your home. 3. Identify where the fleas are coming from, and track their progress over time with candle traps 4. Apply poison liberally 5. REPEAT. Seriously, repeat. This stuff is no joke. The smell that everyone is raving about is to cover up the scent of the poison you're applying. Look up the active ingredients -- they can cause serious health effects, so don't breathe this stuff in. I experienced burning in my lungs the first day I applied it, then learned to cover my mouth with a towel, and vacate the space until it was dry. I may have gone a bit overboard with applying... but I had a Serious Infestation. I have no regrets. How I got rid of fleas: I discovered fleas on my dog on Wednesday night. I immediately gave him a bath and vacuumed everything. This was my first time with fleas, and if it's yours, these should Always be your first two steps. Then, I looked online for reviews, and ended up buying this product, along with the Home Household Spray, and the Carpet Powder from the same company. It said it would take two days to arrive, so in the meantime, I went and bought another product locally for outside. The next morning I vacuumed again, sprayed outside, and laundered every piece of laundry, textile and fabric in my home. A friend told me to put down shallow dishes full of soap water, with candles in the middle, all over the floor. The fleas are attracted to the heat and light, and will drown in the shallow water. She said to put them everywhere, as many empty dishes as I had. This was the KEY to tracking where the fleas were coming from. I put them near areas where my dog spent time, but was surprised to find out that those areas did not have many fleas. Instead, there were more fleas near a utility closet in my kitchen. As I continued to move the dishes closer to that closet (every few hours), I found more and more fleas in that particular area. Eventually, I moved the dishes into the closet, and that's when I found hundreds, if not thousands of fleas. I rent, and the closet was previously infested with rats (I know, I'm disgusted too). A friend who is a Entomologist told me that flea eggs could have gotten in from the rats, then lay dormant for months. Now it was warm out again, and they were hatching. I immediately deep cleaned the closet as thousands of fleas attacked me (pro tip: wear long pants, sleeves, gloves, a hair covering, a face covering, anything to protect yourself), removed the old carpet inside, and vacuumed every crevice. Once I had done that, I sprayed it with the Home and Carpet Spray on every surface (spray underneath, on top, in the corners, etc), then once that dried, I used the Carpet Powder on the floor, so I could see where the fleas were and, the next time I vacuumed, I could see any areas I missed. Now, every morning, I wake up, vacuum my entire apartment, vacuum the closet, and reapply the poison. Then I leave dishes with candles in the closet all day and all night (I use tall church candles that have less of a risk of catching fire to anything, and the closet is empty), to track how many fleas there are. There has been a significant improvement after 3 days. However, I'm going to keep doing this process for at least two weeks. Read up about breaking the life cycle of fleas -- they can come back if you let down your guard. I will be ready.

SO effective. Protects against SO much more than fleas and ticks. Repurchasing for 6th time. I use this also to prevent ants around my dogs food mat. Make sure not to get in their food bowls though! :) * I have never received a defective spray nozzle, whereas a different brand (main competitor- blue spray bottle) I have never received a spray nozzle that worked properly, it was more expensive, and white liquid. This product is not thick and white, it is a light spray. *This sprayer has the “twist” cap with off, stream, and wide spray options, which I appreciate. I spray all fabric, bedding, carpet, soft surfaces in my home on a regular basis, and have never had any issue with staining or fabric damage. Side Notes: to be clear, these are not “cons” to me. * If you accidentally get it on hard floor, it can be slippery. For example, if you’re spraying an area rug or a kitchen rug that is on a hardwood floor or tile, and some of the spray gets around it on the hard surface, wipe up the excess. It’s a liquid. This is a fabric spray… and I just mean wipe it with the paper towel, so the floor isn’t actually wet. If the floor is dry, it’s not slippery. I feel like this is a “caution, coffee is hot” type of warning. Common sense: wet floor = slippery. * You are purchasing a product with pesticide in it. That’s why it’s effective. The smell doesn’t linger, but if you’re expecting it to come out smelling like your favorite Febreze, you have unrealistic expectations. It doesn’t smell bad, and the other brand I mentioned earlier in my review is worse on the scent level, in my opinion. If you are looking for an all natural, essential oil kind of deal, you probably won’t be happy with this, but I guarantee it will not be as effective as this either. This product protects up to seven months in the FUTURE. An all natural product is not going to do that.. :) My dogs are on monthly flea and tick treatment so I do not use this as the main flea control in my household. They do however love to roll in the grass and sunbathe. I like to cuddle with them and nothing else they bring inside, lol. This works for that.

Works well and does not smell to bad but it takes a little while to actually kill the fleas. Started seeing results in a little over two days.

Works wonders. Just as directed and has a pretty pleasant smell, too.

I bought this after noticing some fleas in the house, and it’s been pretty effective. The spray is easy to use, and it doesn’t have an overwhelming chemical smell like some other flea treatments. I used it on carpets, furniture, and a few pet areas (but not directly on my pets, since it’s meant for surfaces), and after a couple of days, I started seeing fewer fleas. It does take a little time to work, so don’t expect instant results. You’ll probably need to reapply in problem areas, especially if you’re dealing with a bigger infestation. It also helps to vacuum regularly to get rid of any lingering eggs. Overall, this is a solid flea treatment for the home. It’s not a miracle spray, but if you use it consistently along with other flea prevention methods, it definitely makes a difference.

I’ve used it on carpet, on pet beds, cat posts and couches, it thankfully smells good! I’ve seen fleas start popping up more after spraying it and succumb to it but they also seem to keep coming back. The spray has a good spread and mine thankfully doesn’t spill and is easy to use. I don’t see any prevention within the month I use it, let alone for up to 7months. The fleas are still an ongoing battle and this doesn’t seem to keep them away or continuously kill after the first use (will have to spray continuously instead).

Product helps kill fleas/ticks in couches and rugs. It helps with items you can’t wash. Smells nice
