 What is the best way to kill and get rid if fleas?  I have a large area and i thought about using gas or diesel through a spray and set the top of the ground a fire! Would like to hear everyone's opinion please.

It just happened to me I was infested with them. Go buy comfortis for your dogs. It works wonders. I tried premethrin and martins ig regulator mixee together it may have helped as well. Comfortis will rid you of them

Fleas were getting pretty bad around my place.  I started mixing 4 parts tree & shrub to 1 part permithrin.  Put a line from base of the head to the tell and it worked like a charm.  Everything that bites them dies.

what do think about spraying gas all over the area and given it a few minutes then lighting the ground, that will kill alll the fleas on the top surface. then i can treat the rest , their are so many fleas.

I couldnt go near my dogs without getting covered in fleas I gave them comfortis and they didnt have none and after about 3-4 days the fleas disappeared from out there as well. They didnt have nothing to feed on. Best bet is to go buy the stuff

I sprayed diesal and hi yield 38%permictrum and. Got some stuff from a buddy that works at the pest control and none worked. I had them so bad I dreaded goin back there to feed my dog. This may sound crazy but I got 28 chickens I let them out of the pen and watched them go around picking the fleas. Chickens will eat every one of them
