A house being fumigated over the weekend may have drawn out several firebugs.

The same house caught on fire two times Sunday night and officials said it looks suspicious.

Firefighters said the house on Hillburn Road in east Bakersfield was fumigated on Friday and is tented.

The first fire happened early Monday morning.

Firefighters said the outside of the tent was on fire, but they were able to get it out quickly.

Fire officials are still looking into the cause of the fires.
