We''ve paid for fertilizer/weed control in the past, but I''m doing it myself this year, now that the rules have changed regarding pesticides. Last year the paid applications were only marginally effective against the weeds in my lawn, and I ended up pulling most of them by hand throughout the summer.
I also didn't really like not knowing when they were coming - there were times when I felt like the lawn could use some fertilizer because it hadn't been done in a while, but I couldn't apply it myself for fear of over-fertilizing if they showed up a few days later.
I figure if I'm going to be pulling weeds anyway, I might as well have full control over the schedule and save myself a few bucks in the process.
