Flea control
in Newcastle
Itchy ankles and a scratching pet? Treating the animal alone won't fix it — we break the flea lifecycle in your home so the bites stop.
Break the flea cycle
Quick answer: Flea control in Newcastle with Kapow starts at a fixed $285 for a standard Newcastle home, is backed by a 12-month warranty, and can be booked online in about 60 seconds.
Fleas hitch a ride in on pets and wildlife, then lay eggs that drop into carpet, rugs, bedding and lawn. For every flea you see, there are many more eggs and larvae you don't — which is why a problem flares up again days after you think you've beaten it.
We treat the whole environment with products that include a growth regulator, so adult fleas and the next generation are dealt with together. Pair it with treating your pet and the cycle is broken.
Signs of fleas
Bites and a restless pet are the usual giveaways.
Scratching pets
Pets biting, scratching and grooming more than usual, especially the hindquarters.
Ankle bites
Small, itchy bites in clusters around your ankles and lower legs.
Flea dirt
Pepper-like specks (flea dirt) in pet bedding, carpet and along skirting.
Jumping fleas
Tiny dark fleas you can see jumping onto socks and light-coloured fabric.
How we get rid of fleas
An environment-wide treatment that targets every stage.
Inspect & prep
We check the hot spots and give you simple prep steps — vacuum and wash bedding.
Treat the home
Carpets, rugs, skirting and pet zones treated with a flea product plus growth regulator.
Break the cycle
Newly hatched fleas emerge into the treated zone and the population collapses.
Follow-up cover
A follow-up if needed, backed by your warranty, to mop up stragglers.

Should I treat my pet as well?
Yes — treating your pet (via your vet) at the same time as the home is the fastest way to break the cycle for good.
Is the treatment safe for pets and kids?
Yes — registered, low-tox products with a short re-entry time. We'll let you know how long to keep everyone off treated areas while they dry.
Should I vacuum before or after?
Both. Vacuum before we arrive, then keep vacuuming every couple of days afterwards — it helps eggs hatch into the treated zone.
How long until the fleas are gone?
Adults drop quickly, but you may see a few for up to two weeks as eggs hatch into the treatment. That's normal and expected.
How much does flea control cost?
Flea treatment starts at a fixed $285 for a standard home, confirmed before you book.
