I recently sprayed 1 can(20 oz)Ultra-Cide in home, approx.1200 sq.ft. of carpet. I sprayed sides of couches and chairs as directed by your help-line, and I still have fleas?
It is normal to still see fleas after an application of Ultracide. It is not a contact kill after the product has dried, it will take time for a flea to die after contacting a treated surface. Typically most flea problems can be handled in 2 treatments, but this depends on how bad the problem is. You should repeat the treatment exactly 14 days after the first treatment, or 2 weeks, since this is how often flea eggs typically hatch. It is common to have to do 3 or 4 treatments (treating every 2 weeks) over 2 months for bad problems.
