This morning the pest control came and sprayed our apartment. The women sprayed all around the house expect the bedroom and i'm worried about the fumes getting to Ella. Should we be concerned?, should we put her in a place where they didn't spray until the smell ware's off?

Any way you can take her out somewhere for a few hours? if not, I'd make sure the room is well ventilated.. open all windows and add fans

There's no place like home
Every pet reacts differently to these sprays. I had a greyhound that was rushed to the emergency room after I treated the house with a vet prescribed product that was supposedly safe for animals. I've had cats that had no issues when they treated the apartment complex I lived in.

After the greyhound incident, I always err on the side of caution. If you can't take her out of the apartment for a while, then fans in the window, pointing outward to get rid of any fumes might be a good idea. Once the fumes settle, wash down all your counters, tables and floors in case anything settled on top of them.
