Taking a tenant to small claims

[Amanda Cates]

I have a couple questions about what I can charge the tenant for. As I stated in a previous post I'm still learning because this is my first time dealing with a tenantt leaving me with a mess. Repairs are costing us more than the security deposit. My first question is my husband and father in law did all the clean up on the house. They easily put in 40 hours cleaning up dog urine and the mess left. Can I charge the tenant an hourly rate for this? Also the tenant left is with a flea infestation. It's bad. We treated it our selfs once but then had to call an exterminator. They treated the house but told us we would have to come vacuum everyday for two weeks to get them. I thought they were exaggerating but no the fleas are still everywhere when we go. There always more dead but they keep hatching. We live 30 mins away. Can I charge him for the time to do this? Lastly they were smoking on the property. The only evidence I have is cigarettes and cigar tips left in the yard and carport. Our lease says he owes us $2000 for smoking anywhere on the property. You can smell it somewhat in the house now that we got the urine smell out so I'm wondering if I have enough evidence for the judge to put that in my claim? Thank you for any advice.
