Professional Flea & Tick Treatment for Your Home and Yard

Fleas and ticks in South Florida aren't just seasonal problems; they're year-round threats. The warm, humid climate means these pests stay active in every month, and once they establish a population in your yard or inside your home, they multiply rapidly. A single female flea can produce hundreds of eggs in her lifetime, and those eggs can survive in carpet fibers, furniture, and soil for months before hatching.

At Royal Pest & Termite, our flea and tick control service treats the problem at every stage, inside your home and outside in your yard.

How to Tell If You Have a Flea or Tick Problem

Fleas and ticks can be difficult to spot until the infestation is well established. Here are the most common signs that your home or yard has a problem:

Your Pets Are Scratching Excessively

If your dog or cat is scratching, biting, or licking themselves more than usual, especially around the neck, ears, base of the tail, and belly, fleas are the most likely cause.

Bites on Your Ankles & Lower Legs

Flea bites on humans typically appear as small, red, itchy bumps clustered around the ankles, feet, and lower legs.

Tiny Jumping Insects on Carpet or Furniture

Fleas are small (about 1/8 inch), reddish-brown, and jump distances many times their body length.

Flea Dirt

Flea dirt looks like tiny black pepper flakes and is often found on pet bedding, couch cushions, and carpeted areas where pets rest.

Ticks Attached to Pets

Ticks embed themselves into skin and feed for days. Check your pets and family members after spending time in wooded areas, tall grass, or overgrown landscape.

Hot Spots or Hair Loss on Pets

Persistent flea infestations can cause flea allergy dermatitis in pets, an allergic reaction to flea saliva that results in intense itching, hot spots, hair loss, and skin infections.

How Our Flea and Tick Treatment Works

Our flea and tick control service treats both inside your home and outside in your yard, because fleas and ticks don’t stay in one place. An indoor-only treatment will fail if the yard is infested, and a yard-only treatment won’t stop fleas that are already breeding inside.

Indoor Treatment

On treatment day, our technicians work from top to bottom through your home to ensure full coverage: Aerosol contact insecticide that kills adult fleas on contact throughout your home's living spaces, a dust treatment for carpeting and upholstery that penetrates deep into carpet fibers and furniture fabric where flea eggs and larvae hide, and an insect growth regulator (IGR) that is a residual product that prevents flea eggs and larvae from developing into adults, breaking the reproductive cycle.

Yard & Exterior Treatment

We treat your entire yard with a combination of contact and residual products that eliminate fleas and ticks living in the grass, soil, mulch, and landscape. This includes: a full lawn treatment covering all turf areas, a shrub and landscape bed treatment, fleas and ticks harbor in shaded, moist areas around shrubs and under bushes, a perimeter treatment around your home's foundation, and a targeted treatment of shaded and high-moisture zones where fleas and ticks concentrate.

What Do German Cockroaches Look Like?

Adults (German Cockroach Size): German cockroaches are about ½-⅝ inch long, light brown with two dark stripes behind the head. They have wings but don't fly. You'll often spot them running across kitchen counters or baseboards when lights come on.

Babies (German Cockroach Baby / Nymph): A baby German cockroach (German cockroach nymph) starts as small as a grain of rice, dark and wingless. As they grow, they lighten and develop the two-stripe pattern. Seeing small roaches in the kitchen usually means a breeding colony nearby.

Eggs: Females carry egg cases (oothecae) until just before hatching. Each case holds 30-40 eggs, and one female can produce hundreds of baby German cockroaches, allowing infestations to grow quickly.

Just had a No Tent Termite Service completed today. I live in Miramar and wanted to use a local company. I am very satisfied. The process began 2 weeks ago with their Sales Representative Aaron Wilton. I am in sales so I recognize a professional. He was knowledgeable and presented options clearly without pressure including attractive payment terms. The 2 techs who preformed the service were Greg and Michael who were polite, through and efficient. I would certainly recommend Royal Pest.

Flea & Tick Control FAQs

How much does flea treatment cost?
The cost depends on the size of your home, the size of your yard, and the severity of the infestation. Our service includes both interior and exterior treatment using professional-grade products that target all flea life stages. We provide estimates based on your specific situation — call us to discuss pricing for your property.
Is the treatment safe for my pets?

Yes. Every product we use is selected with pet safety in mind. We do ask that pets be kept off treated surfaces until they're dry, which typically takes a few hours. We also require that your pets be treated with a vet-recommended flea product at the same time as our service. This protects your pet and prevents them from reintroducing fleas after treatment.

Why do I need to treat my yard too?
Fleas and ticks live and breed in your yard, in the grass, soil, mulch, and under shrubs. If you only treat your home’s interior, fleas from your yard will re-enter on your shoes, your pets, or through open doors and windows. Treating both environments simultaneously is the only way to stop the cycle.
Why don’t flea bombs work?
Flea bombs (foggers) only kill adult fleas on exposed surfaces. They don’t penetrate deep into carpet fibers where flea larvae live, they don’t reach the cracks and crevices where eggs collect, and they don’t include insect growth regulators to stop the reproductive cycle. This is why people use flea bombs and see fleas return within a week or two, the adults are gone but the eggs and larvae weren’t touched. Professional treatment uses products that address all life stages where they actually hide.
How long does the treatment take to work?
You should see a significant reduction in adult flea activity within the first 24 to 48 hours. However, it’s normal to see some fleas for up to two weeks after treatment as pupae that were dormant during treatment emerge and contact the residual products. The insect growth regulator we apply continues working after the initial treatment, preventing new generations from developing.
Are fleas and ticks a year-round problem in Florida?
Yes. Unlike cooler climates where freezing temperatures kill off flea and tick populations each winter, South Florida’s subtropical climate keeps these pests active in every month. Broward County rarely sees temperatures below 60°F, which is well above the threshold that would cause a population die-off. That means flea and tick infestations can happen in any season here.
