   I actually saw a can HOT SHOT which featured Bedbugs and some other critters on the store shelf the other day and out of curiosity looked at the labelling. Of course I can't remember what I read, but this is what I came away with. For fleas, I believe the wording included eggs. There was just a blanket sentence of where it stated that it killed bedbugs, but did not specifically say all stages, or eggs.

   Based on that I think it probably does kill bed bugs, but not their eggs.
