FLEAS!!! Yes, a lot of them...

Long story short; a house I bought has fleas.  Lots of them.  Like you walk into the living room and at least 20 are on your pant legs.  I've fogged the house twice.  I've called in a professional, twice.  Anyone have any other recommendations for the house, yard, and crawl space?  I need to kill these things DEAD before I can proceed with any rehab.

Thanks in Advance!!  :D

You have my sympathy!   Any products used should contain Insect Growth Regulators (typically listed as IGR on the label).  The idea is to "break" the cycle of eggs to adults.  Often the foggers/bombs will do a great job of knocking off the adults but when the eggs hatch the whole cycle starts again.

The site www.domyownpestcontrol.com has some excellent professional products for all types of pests, including fleas.
