Well, it depends on what you want to scrape from the specific websites. Those requirements determine what kind of package or API you need to use.
This is a good package for most use cases: https://github.com/spatie/crawler

Scraping Kijiji and FB marketplace data
The goal is to have a job run every X hours on my application that gets "garage sale" ad / classifieds ad data from sites like kijiji.ca or Facebook marketplace.
I'm seeking guidance on web scrapper packages that I can use, or third party api services that would also be of use. Thanks again !

@james_moore Pretty sure scraping listings data would be against both of those site’s terms of service. Definitely Facebook’s; I haven’t heard of Kijiji.
