Flea infestations in Melbourne’s Southeast often peak during our humid summer months or when moving into a new rental property. Because fleas have a complex lifecycle, a simple “bomb” from the supermarket rarely works. You need a professional approach that targets every stage of development.
A flea infestation can quickly turn your home into an uncomfortable environment for both your family and your pets. These hardy pests are known for their ability to survive in carpets and floorboards for months without a host. At Repel Pest Solutions, we provide comprehensive flea treatments that break the breeding cycle for good.
The most common sign is a restless pet. If your dog or cat is constantly scratching, licking, or biting at their fur—particularly around the neck, hindquarters, and base of the tail—fleas are likely the culprit.
Fleas generally stay low to the ground. If humans in the house are experiencing small, red, itchy bumps—usually clustered around the ankles and lower legs—you have an active infestation in your floor coverings.
Adult fleas are tiny (1–2mm), reddish-brown, and wingless. They are incredible jumpers. You might spot them leaping off your carpet, rug, or curtains when they sense movement or heat nearby.
Flea eggs are tiny, white, oval-shaped specks. They are often dropped by pets into carpet fibres, rug piles, or the cracks between floorboards. While hard to see with the naked eye, a concentration of these indicates a massive "nursery" under your feet.
Standard sprays only kill adult fleas. Our treatment is designed to eliminate the entire population.
We confirm the source of the infestation to ensure the correct treatment plan is applied.
We use specialized Insect Growth Regulators (IGRs) that prevent flea larvae from ever reaching adulthood, effectively breaking the lifecycle.
We treat carpets, rugs, skirting boards, and sub-floors where larvae and pupae hide.
At Repel Pest Solutions, we focus on what matters most: safe, effective pest solutions, honest pricing and friendly service you can count on.
