No, a flea bomb is not considered an effective or recommended solution.
Flea bombs, also known as foggers or total release foggers, release pesticides into a room to treat indoor flea infestations.
The pesticide-infused fog fills the space then falls to the ground where it sticks to surfaces.
There are several problems with flea bombs:
All surfaces in the room are contaminated with the pesticide, including pet’s toys and bedding, children’s toys, furniture, lampshades, pictures, knick-knacks, food preparation areas, and any cooking and eating utensils that are left out.
The chemicals and propellants in a flea bomb can be flammable. Use extreme caution. Turn off the water heater, furnace, and gas stoves and extinguish the pilot lights. Cut the power to all fans, lights and other electrical devices.
Most importantly, flea bombs do not reach sheltered areas, such as beneath furniture or the interiors of closets and cabinets, where fleas hide. Fleas in these protected areas will be unaffected by the flea bomb and therefore will survive.
Lastly, pupae and adults inside cocoons will not be affected and will emerge after the flea bomb to continue to infest your home.
