Why the treatment must be coordinated with the vet

A flea problem lives in three places at once: on the animal, in the carpet, and in the yard. Treat any one of them alone and the population rebuilds from the other two. This is the one service where the timing of what your vet does and what we do matters more than the products either of us uses, because most of a flea population is eggs and pupae that are untouched by the first treatment.

Flea life stages and where each is dealt with
StageWhere it isWhat reaches it
Adult flea On the animal, and briefly in the environment Veterinary product on the pet; environmental treatment for those off-host
Egg Falls off the animal into carpet, bedding and floor cracks Vacuuming plus an insect growth regulator in the environmental treatment
Larva Deep in carpet pile, under furniture, in floor gaps — avoids light Environmental treatment plus thorough vacuuming; will not be reached by treating the pet
Pupa Protected in a sticky cocoon in the same places Nothing kills it reliably — this is why a follow-up visit is needed as they emerge
Outdoor population Shaded ground where pets rest; under decks and shrubs Targeted exterior treatment of resting areas, not blanket yard spraying
Ticks Tall grass and shaded leaf-litter edges, waiting for a host Treatment of the yard margin, plus keeping grass short and litter cleared
