While the PT Ultracide Product Label does allow for reapplications earlier than every 14 days, spraying more frequently will not typically get rid of the problem faster. There are egg cycles that have to hatch that will not all happen at once, and the Ultracide is a residual so its still on the surface for months after each application. You just treat every 14 days for an active flea problem vs every 6 months for prevention. You wouldn't have to do a full furniture move around every day, but doing a good thorough vacuuming before each treatment in that manner is always helpful. In between treatments the normal floor areas you would vacuum are fine. The first spray treatment is primarily for knock down of the initial population and starting the residual control. Your follow up treatment at the 14 day mark would reinforce the original residual barrier you applied and help continue to knock down the population as you vacuum and treat. Often you will see the flea problem gone after the end of 2 treatments 2 weeks apart, but every home and situation is going to be slightly different. Feel free to review our guide on How To Get Rid of Fleas for more tips on treating.
