Black Flag Flea & Tick Killer Home Treatment & Growth Regulator,Ready-To-Use Spray, 1-Gallon, 4-Pack

EXCELLENT product!!We were quite SHOCKED when our "Indoor-ONLY" Kitty became infested w/ fleas! (😨YIKES!) We can only suspect that the fleas somehow entered our cozy, flea-FREE environment either by hitching a ride on the shoes/clothing of a recent visitor to our home who has pets, came in one of the many boxes or pkg deliveries we frequently receive, or one of our family members allowed a tag-along in, as they trekked thru our VERY "pet friendly" neighborhood. (That's just a 'Heads-Up' to anyone wanting to be vigilant.) At 1st we were in FULL denial when Jasmine (our kitty😻) 1st started "scratching" herself, thinking it must just be a mild case of dermatitis, or "something." Because after all, she NEVER leaves the house, so it CAN'T be fleas!! Oh, boy...how WRONG were we!!! (Consider that another 'Heads-Up!' I would suggest to just CHECK your fur baby at the VERY 1st sign of scratching/itching. DON'T make our mistake!!😰) I then noticed her scratching becoming incessant. Even to the point where she would wake from a deep sleep to SCRATCH! She even looked miserable. By the time I realized what it could possibly be, my POOR baby was infested w/ fleas!!😣After FRANTICALLY scouring nearly EVERY website @ the internet & learning EVERYTHING there is to KNOW about FLEAS...I was ready for the "BATTLE!!!" (That's the term I hear/read ppl use all the time regarding their experience(s) with fleas. Because trust me...it IS just THAT: a full-blown "BATTLE!"😡 Lol) What I initially thought was harmless cat "dandruff" turned out to be flea EGGS! And my kitty had been shedding them everywhere in the house! (😨Yikes, again! Because I do mean EVERYWHERE!!) I headed to Amazon & LOADED my cart w/ EVERYthing & ANYthing that I thought I would need to fight this scourge of fleas! Flea & Tick: □ Shampoo, check; □ Tablets, check; □ Drops, check; □ Collar, check; □ New Vacuum Cleaner (You betcha, that's how determined I was to "WIN" this Battle! Lol) check; □ Wipes, check; □ Flea & Tick combs, check; and lastly the most important ingredient in the Recipe to kill those pesky PESTS...□ Spray!!! But, Holy Smokes...WHICH ONE?! Sooo many choices, sooo many price points!!😫 Where do I even begin?!😲So I bought a WHOLE bunch of DIFFERENT ones:#1) Adam's: worked somewhat ok, but the smell & scent overwhelmed us, & our kitty HATED it! For the price, I thought, there could be better. #2) Hartz: GR8 price, worked relatively well. Good choice if you're needing to be extra price-conscious & need something that works. #3) Ortho (Aerosol): a bit pricey for such a small can, but does a GR8 job for hitting "hot spots" & dishing out an "instant kill!" Must use sparingly or, it'll all be gone B4 you know it! #4) Ortho (Liquid-Gal): Pretty decent job, no better or worse than the others. Didn't see any significant difference from others. #5) Black Flag Extreme Flea Killer (THIS Guy): I saved the BEST for last, because this puppy DOES the job BEST!! It incorporates the MUST-HAVE "IGR" component that helps win the "Battle" over those tiny monsters & their different "Life Stages," & you definitely NEED to catch them ALL in ALL of their various stages; adults, eggs, larvae, pupae, it has a clean scent that everyone in the house could live with, Jasmine didn't scamper off frantically at the 1st wiff of it (like she did w/ Adam's!) - in fact, she followed right behind me whilst I was spraying around the house, curious to see what I was doing - is priced quite fairly for its size (altho I noticed it went up a couple dollars from my 1st purchase to my 2nd; $11.XX to $13.XX - but that's ok👌 w/ me because it DOES WORK!👍, and it UNdoubtedly, absolutely knocked-DOWN the flea population in our humble abode, like nobody's business!!! The difference between all the other sprays & THIS guy was UNmistakable!! We noticed results almost immediately!! I can highly recommend THIS product WITHOUT ANY HESITATION!!!Needless to say...$200-$300 later I had EVERY hope that I could WIN this particular "Battle!" (Lol...I HATE losing @ ANYthing!) Knock on wood, we're about 99.9% there. (After nearly 3-4 mos of this Fight! And I'm tuckered out!😴+🤕) Yeah, I'm finding fleas...BUT, they're all DEAD fleas! (The BEST kind!😂) If you're also in the midst of a "Battle," or just beginning it, your approach has GOT to be MULTI-PRONGED!!! You CANNOT JUST give your fur baby a flea bath, or JUST put a few drops between their shoulder blades, or JUST buy them a flea collar & hope the problem goes away. (Because it WON'T!!) You MUST treat EVERYthing & EVERYwhere your 4-legged beloved one comes in contact with; Beds, Scratching Posts, Chew Toys, Favorite Blankey, etc., along w/ treating him/her. Then vacuum, Vacuum, VACUUM...like there's no tomorrow! Be VERY vigilant w/ baths, drops, buy a decent flea collar, spray liberally, etc. & watch for ANY possible ways fleas can infiltrate your home...And hopefully YOU, too, can WIN your BATTLE against those MUCH hated fleas & ticks!!! Good Luck!!! I hope my long-winded (sorry 'bout that! I had to "share" as much as I could to help YOU, the SAME way others helped ME!) dissertation proves to be of some small measure of help. Fleas & Ticks SUCK BIG TIME!!! WHO NEEDS 'EM?!!!😬P.S. Just a ☡Cautionary Note - since I already did the Homework:Do NOT treat your pet w/ more than one treatment at a time!!! You do NOT want to overwhelm or shock their system & have them get sick. Please space your treatments, or consult your Vet for further advice. If you can't afford a Vet, check out the website: Flea Science. Terrific info & insight. (No...I'm NOT affiliated whatsoever. Just found it packed w/ exceptional knowledge.)P.P.S. If my Battle starts to falter & the remaining .01% needs to be conquered w/ something else, I've been advised that a WHOLE house "Fogging" might just do the trick! You may want to consider incorporating that in YOUR Battle.Good Luck, again! & Have a GR8 Day!!!😊

I used this product to treat a moderate flea issue in a carpeted area and outdoor pet zone, and it worked exactly as advertised. Within hours, adult fleas were gone, and the growth regulator kept new ones from hatching.🦟 Fast Knockdown & Residual ControlThe active ingredients hit hard and fast. I saw dead fleas within minutes of application, and the IGR (Insect Growth Regulator) kept the area clear for weeks. No re-infestation, even in high-traffic zones.🏠 Indoor & Outdoor VersatilityI used it on rugs, baseboards, pet bedding, and even the porch. It dries quickly and doesn’t leave a sticky residue. The gallon size was more than enough to treat a 1,200 sq ft home with some left over.🧴 Easy ApplicationThe built-in sprayer worked smoothly with no clogging. Coverage was even, and the trigger handle made it easy to control flow. No need for extra gear or mixing.🐾 Safe When Used CorrectlyI followed the label instructions and kept pets out during drying. No adverse reactions, and the treated areas were safe to re-enter after a few hours.💬 Final VerdictIf you’re dealing with fleas and want a professional-grade solution without hiring an exterminator, this product delivers. It’s now part of my seasonal pest control routine.

Works great, good amount and easy spray handle.

The Black Flag Extreme Flea Killer Plug Growth Regulator spray worked great for knocking down a flea infestation inside.My relative does not have any pets but someone's cat kept coming into their backyard. That cat must have had a major flea infestation because the whole backyard was soon hopping with fleas that would jump on your legs (summer, so wearing shorts) and bite. And even worse, these blood sucking fleas would "hitch" a ride on your clothes so the fleas infested the inside of the house!Vacuuming several times a day was helping, but there were still tons hopping, biting, laying eggs and hatching the future blood suckers! Along with the constant vacuuming, this Black Flag spray helped to knock down the fleas substantially. Within a few days, there were noticeably less fleas (and bites!) and the visible ones were very weak. The IGR Growth Regulator in this spray probably also helped to cut down the fleas, since they couldn't mature to the egg laying life cycle, so within a month of spraying and constant vacuuming, it appears that the inside flea infestation is gone. However, the backyard still had the flea infestation which required another product purchased from Amazon which also worked well.The only problem though is that the spray attachment that comes with this product is junk and does not work! Ended up putting the Black Flag into another spray bottle so Black Flag really needs to address the issue of this useless spray attachment!So, if you have a flea infestation inside this Black Flag spray (make sure you read and follow the label directions!) is recommended along with constant vacuuming.

I had high hopes for the Black Flag Extreme Flea Killer, but my experience was mixed. While it does work to reduce flea populations over time, I was disappointed with its "kills on contact" claim. I noticed that fleas were still active after direct application, requiring multiple treatments for any significant effect.The 1-gallon size is convenient for covering larger areas, and the product does seem to help in breaking the flea life cycle if used consistently. However, if you're looking for an instant solution, this might not be the best choice. Overall, it’s decent but falls short in terms of immediate effectiveness.
