Flea Control...we are at our last wits...Help!

What’s the best flea treatment after you’ve tried nearly everything else? Should we just go all out and flea bomb? We have had fleas for going on 6 weeks and have tried natural spray, sprinkling borax on the carpets, professionals using insect growth regulator, treating the dogs (flea pill that kills them after 30 minutes - don’t remember the name), flea baths, daily brushing and combing...still getting bites on my kiddo.

Background: We noticed flea bites on 3/4 of my family in late December. We’ve only spotted less than 10 adult fleas since then. We tried getting some natural flea spray at Petsmart with no luck. We called a professional pest control company who has been out 3 times over the past 6 weeks...at least two of the times they sprayed growth inhibitor. I tried sprinkling (understatement) all of our carpets with borax and vacuuming it up. We just found bites on my kid tonight.

My family is on its last nerve with this. I know it can take months, but we are out of patience with our kids getting bit.

Do we just need to go nuclear and fumigate the house? Help!
