Flea & Tick Control in Salt Lake City

Our Flea and Tick Control Services in Utah

Every service we run for fleas and ticks starts with a walkthrough of your property. The inspection determines where we treat, what products we select, and what follow-up looks like. Here's what's included:

• Property inspection: We look at the areas where fleas and ticks establish, pet resting spots, carpeted rooms, baseboards, yard perimeters, and shaded areas with dense vegetation. The inspection drives everything that follows.
• Indoor flea treatment: We apply EPA-registered insecticides and insect growth regulators to carpet edges, baseboards, under furniture, and pet sleeping areas. The growth regulator disrupts the flea lifecycle at the egg and larval stage, which is what keeps populations from rebuilding after the adults are knocked down.
• Outdoor perimeter treatment: Ticks concentrate in shaded, humid areas near the property line, brush piles, dense ground cover, and the edges where lawn meets landscaping. We treat those zones specifically rather than blanketing your entire yard.
• Wildlife source assessment: Ticks frequently enter Utah properties on deer, raccoons, and other wildlife passing through the yard. If we find signs of wildlife activity during the inspection, we'll connect that to your tick pressure and can coordinate with our wildlife control services if exclusion work makes sense.
• Follow-up visit: One treatment usually isn't enough for an established flea infestation. Eggs and pupae survive the initial application. A follow-up a few weeks later confirms the population has been addressed through the full lifecycle.
• Prevention guidance: We walk you through what to clean, treat on your pets (through your vet), and adjust around the yard so the problem doesn't reload between visits.

Flea and tick treatment is available as a standalone service or as part of a recurring home pest control plan that covers the broader range of pests common in Utah homes throughout the year.

Signs You Need Flea and Tick Control

The earliest signals are easy to miss or explain away. Here are the ones worth acting on:

• Your pet is scratching constantly, especially around the neck and base of the tail. These are the spots fleas prefer. If your dog or cat is restless, over-grooming, or developing patchy fur, fleas are a likely cause even if you haven't spotted any on them directly.
• You're getting bitten around the ankles. Fleas jump toward heat and movement. Ankle and lower-leg bites on people in the house, often felt as clusters rather than single bites, are a reliable early indicator of an active infestation in the flooring.
• You find tiny dark specks in pet bedding or on your pet's skin. This is flea dirt, the digested blood fleas leave behind. Dampen a piece of it on a white surface and it'll turn reddish-brown. If you're seeing this, there's a population in the home, not just a hitchhiker from outside.
• You're finding attached ticks on people or pets after time outdoors. One tick on a dog after a hike may be chance. Multiple ticks, or ticks found repeatedly without a clear outdoor exposure, often means the yard itself has a tick population, particularly along the fence line or in unmaintained brush at the property edge.

Why Choose Pest Pro Utah

• Licensed through the Utah Department of Agriculture and Food. Pest Pro Utah holds current state licensure for pesticide control service work. That's required for most professional pest treatment in Utah, and it's not something every exterminator service you find online can actually confirm.
• We inspect before we treat. Placing a flea product in the wrong area, or missing the outdoor tick zone entirely, produces short results. We find where the problem is actually concentrated before anything gets applied, and that's what makes the treatment last.
• We address what's bringing pests to your property, not just the pests themselves. Ticks ride in on wildlife. Fleas come in on pets that have been near infested animals or environments. If rodent activity or wildlife is a contributing factor, we flag it and can handle that separately so the tick pressure doesn't return through the same route.
• Pest Pro Utah is a Best of Utah and Best of SLC award winner in 2026. That recognition comes from customers across the Salt Lake Valley, not a self-nomination process, and we hold ourselves to it on every job.
• We cover the full range of pest problems under one roof. If your flea and tick inspection turns up connected issues, cockroaches in the kitchen, spiders in the garage, or signs of a mice problem moving in ahead of fall, our team handles all of it. You won't need to coordinate multiple pest control companies for overlapping problems on the same property.

If you're seeing signs of fleas or ticks at your home or property, the right move is an inspection before the problem gets into more of the structure or yard. Pest Pro Utah serves Salt Lake City and communities across the Wasatch Front. You can request a quote online or give us a call and we'll get you scheduled.
