What is the cheapest flight from Washington DC to Florida

What is the cheapest flight from Washington DC to Florida?
Hey, We've spent a good 5 hours looking for a flight that fits our budget and at this point, we're seriously at a loss. We need help. We want to fly from Washington DC (or nearby) to Fort Lauderdale, Miami, Tampa, or LA on July 1st/2nd returning on July 5th in $250. As of now, the only opportunity we've found is for $200 via Spirit Airlines. As a consequence of the pilot strike, we're concerned that if we book our tickets, we'll be stranded at the airport - something no one wants to endure. Hence, we're looking at other options. Because our airline budget can't exceed $250 per ticket and we really want to from DC to Florida, we're stuck trying to find deals and we need your help. We want to go to Florida because 1) we've never been, and 2) we want to head out to an awesome beach spot! A couple questions: 1. Can you help us please find the best deal you possibly can from DC --> Florida (Ft. Lauderdale/Miami/Tampa) or even California within our budget? 2. Where do we look? I know this is the July 4th weekend and its a tough market for discount prices, but something has to work...? 3. If Florida or California is not meant to be, where else can we go from DC that sets us up to go to an 'awesome' beach location for the July 4th weekend? We've been to Virginia Beach already, so let's consider another alternative. Any help is strongly appreciated. Thank you so much :)

I was doing a quick search on Southwest.com, and if you leave from Baltimore (BWI) to Fort Lauderdale on July 1, and return July 5, the ticket price, round-trip, for one adult, with taxes if $244. They are both non-stop flights. But, you have to leave from BWI. Not Dulles. From BWI to Tampa, on July 1 to 5th, the cheapest I found for one adult with taxes was $286.10. They are both non-stop flights with AirTran Airways. The price to LA will be $390 with taxes for one adult on the same dates. If you fly out of Dulles on June 30 to Fort Lauderdale, and return July 4th, the ticket price with taxes for one adult is $199.40.
