It's now a year later. The product worked very well and I attacked on all fronts simultaineously and had success. Only when I had my carpet cleaned did it get no longer work. But the instructions will tell you this. I will use this again 'cause the beast has brought some in and is being attacked. Again it's all fronts. It's still hard for me to do this because I've become a codger and some of the funiture I can't move and that's when I use spray. But I highly recommend this product it's a bit messy but worth the effort. I did my carpet in two doses because I was impatient (not that I think a double dose made a difference)
This is now an edited later update. March 5th.I keep the same 5 stars. My poor old pound hound (came flea free) picked up fleas from a local park and it was sad to see how badly off she was with bites around her ears and tum, some red with some at the bleeding stage and hardly getting time to heal before there was another and she never got rest. I reviewed many product and decided on this and it was the best spent $40 ever. Lot's of products fail to kill the pupae.I put the FB into the carpets and for sure there's a lot of escape dust because the product is so fine some settled on furnishings I didn't cover. The carpet puffed some dust for a few days but that was ok (just keep your electronic equipment covered). It stated that it would take a about 3 to 4 weeks to show it's working and that it did. I left it for about a week before vacuuming so it would get a bit trodden in and I was a bit impatient 'cos some guys were still hopping (but tiny ones) so I gave the carpets another dose and began the vacuuming regimen again. I vacuumed every day after that and it sucked up those nasty little critters. It was worth it. I had to use a spray for under the beds because they were too heavy for me to lift. I tackled the problem from all fronts similtaneously. House, pet shampoo, topical(I gave that a three day pass before), and bedding and the spray. Peace at last....peace at last, great jumping dog treats,.... peace at last. I know that many reviewers discussed the toxicity issue and how they felt that this product improperly represented itself but eventually you have to assess whether you want your dog to continue suffering while you seek out alternatives and risk the pet consuming fleas or you take some chances, its a darned if you do and darned if you don't. Frankly the dog won't mind either he/she just wants to get some peace. I don't know why this product doesn't work for everyone but those pesky critters are like roaches, resilient, and dead crafty. It's worked for me although it was really strenuous (I'm not as strong as I used to be)however, my hound is at peace and so much so that she is currently propping her nose of this keyboard. Occasionally pressing on a letter and giving multiple ddddddddddds etc. I had success. I hope that you do too.
