Also, I understand that you are not recommending the use of cat collars or other home remedy methods, but given that I fumigated the tank (for clarification my python was NOT in the tank during fumigation and I aired the tank our for 3 hours with a fan) should I still apply provent-a-mite to the environment? I do not want to risk more harm by using toxins in the tank.

Again, thank you so much for you help.
Yes get the Provent a mite. Mites will keep reinfesting and none of the others cures will kill them all. PAM will stop them forever.
