Having the house sprayed for fleas. Not sure what to do.

Fleas and fish tanks

This is a serious post regarding fleas and fish tanks. I have dogs and a cat in my home and despite them all being on flea medication, I have fleas all over the house. I have tried doing powder in 1 room at a time but I’ve been told they need to be killed all at once for this to be effective...
