You can either pay for treatments or treat yourself. I find that bug bombs kill all breathing insects and controls them for around 4 or more months. If you use bug bombs follow the instructions and don’t over bomb. I also put them in attic when I do the house. Brown recuse wandering spiders don’t seem to be problem in my area down here, but was problem at my previous location.

I’m also lucky that there not many bugs in my area, hardly ever see insects around street lights at night. But they are still in rocks, grass, and landscaping.
The OP is asking about treating their CAT, not their house. Specifically for fleas, not for ants or other insects. Bug bombs will not do a darned thing for a cat, other than give them a respiratory infection.
