How do you get rid of mold under a house

Unless you remedy the conditions that are allowing the mold to grow, it will eventually find its' way back, assuming you could get rid of all of it in the first place. I'm guessing that you have a very damp crawlspace. You need to identify the source of the water/moisture and eliminate it. I'm also guessing that there is not enough ventilation under your house. At the very least, you probably need to provide additional vents.
A properly ventilated and dry crawlspace is not conducive to the growth of mold.
Good luck with your situation.

mold is a fungus. Bleach (chlorine type) kills most fungi. You have not given more details. Nor have I. there are risks to be considered in using large quantities of bleach. Many large household mold problems require the use of a specialized contractor to clean up the problem. They may also require the replacement of building materials such as wood, and fiberboard and drywall, and many other items.
