Summer took me completely unaware: the fleas were terrible, the dogs were miserable, barking, scratching, chewing. I knew I needed help with this problem. So I took the three dogs to the vet. They got baths and the vet asked if I used Frontline. I do -I use it religiously year-round because we are far enough south to have fleas even in winter time.This year the frontline was not enough. The vet told me to use siphotrol for all the dog's sleeping areas and bedding. He also told me to vaccuum daily and use Capstar pills for about a week to get ahead of the problem.
By that evening after spraying the bedding and sleeping corners, and giving the dogs capstar, the dogs were all much happier and much more comfortable. The siphotrol spray seems to have done the trick. I have used capstar with frontline before, but never had the siphotrol. This time, the flea problem has not returned. At first I was nervous about the mounting cost of flea control because the Siphotrol spray was approximately twice as expensive at the vet than I found it on amazon. But now that I found it on amazon, I feel much better buying it.
The spray smells pretty strongly (smells like RAID or other insect spray), but the smell is very short-lived. It does not leave any residue on the carpet or couches. The directions are very clear and very simple. Spray area, let sit a little while, then everyone can reoccupy their spots flea free. The spray claims treated areas remain treated for 2 weeks, which about right (though I think it is a bit less).
None of the dogs seem to mind that their beds were sprayed (DO NOT SPRAY YOUR DOG WITH THIS). I will use this spray all summer long, especially at the prices I found on amazon.
As with any treatment for your pets, I WOULD ask the vet first about this product. But if they suggest it for you, i would buy it on amazon without hesitation.

This is an excellent product. We had fleas about 5 years ago and again recently. We used this then and bought it again. It was recommended by our vet. It is a little more expensive than products at Walmart or Kmart, but well worth the money.Honest reviews on Siphotrol Plus II (Premise Spray), 16 oz
We moved into a rental home (previous tenants had a dog) and our indoor cats we have had for over 6 years that have NEVER had fleas were all of the sudden infested, as was the carpet. It got bad because we didn't realize what was happening at first since our cats have never had fleas and we are in a very nice rental property. I even steam cleaned our carpets and there were MORE than before. Every time I vacuumed I would empty the contents into a plastic bag and it would be crawling with them, my 19 mo old was getting eaten alive.The vet gave our cats capstar and revolution and put this spray in our hands. We have probably been overly cautious but since we have a 4 yr old and 19 month old we have done room by room and leaving the room sealed for a few days afterwards. The most I have found vacuuming after the fact is ONE flea so far. We have done 5 rooms and have two to go, I would say that this stuff is amazing and does just what it says! We will see if it keeps a new hatching from happening. I am hoping so!
