Pest control- Fleas ,,,,,?

Just called Orkin. $250 Forget that ! LOL I have fleas, lots of them because I let a bunch of feral cats in. Used 1 16 oz can of flea spray and its helped a little in my bedroom where they were not as bad but the other room is still full. I have a fogger that I haven't used. Appreciate any advice from anyone who has been there ! The 7 feral cats (4 kittens) are not coming back in.

1. as a survivor of an all out flea assault , I can tell you that you have to go to war. or just burn the house down. burning is a lot easier, but illegal in most areas. first, friontline or similar, for the cats. second, strip one room bare, anything that moves, out. furniture, rugs, etc. wash floors, vacuum rugs. then spray floor with "siphotrol plus II". move everything back in, spray every thing with siphotrol. then you do the same in the next room until all rooms are done. you will have to dig in and hold out for 2 years. they will fall back, regroup, bring in reinforcements and attack again over the next 2 years ( actually, their eggs lie dormant for 18 months, then hatch and starts all over, but it feels like like you are in a war movie). cats need frontline, or similar, every month for 2 years. spray siphotrol again in 2 weeks, then wait and see. when they attack again, just spray the open areas of the room. if you get another infestation, strip and wash and spray again.
