     Our lease states ” the tenant agrees to have the carpets professionally steam cleaned and the property professionally fumigated for fleas inside and outside by a licenced pest control company, at the end of the tenancy.”

    thanks Tanya 

    I assume you organized the pest control company (not the agent or owner).

    Does your agreement with the pest control company say that they are going to comply with the tenancy agreement if so it’s the responsibility of the pest company to sort out their failure to do a proper job.

    As far as I can see you have complied with your tenancy agreement by paying for a licensed pest company who didn’t do a proper job (assuming it was a licensed company and not one of your mates doing it on the cheap).

    If the agent supplied the pest control company and you just paid you have no further liability at all
