Ebbsfleet were plunged even deeper into the Blue Square Premier relegation dogfight after a 3-1 Good Friday defeat at Salisbury City.
Second-half goals from Chris Giles and Ben Adelsbury eased Salisbury's own relegation fears, but leave Liam Daish's men three points away from safety and second from bottom.
Aaron Martin put the home side ahead from close range after just seven minutes from two yards, following Matthew Tubbs' flick-on from Chris Shephard's left-wing cross.
Magno Vieira then put Fleet level just 37 seconds later when he outpaced Giles to fire home.
But Giles found the back of the net once more after the break on 66 minutes, heading in former Gills man Sean Clohessy's corner to make it 2-1.
Adelsbury's stunning 35-yard seven minutes later strike sealed the win.
Fleet will rue a number of missed chances during the latter stages of the first period. Moses Ashikodi, Ricky Shakes and Vieira all going close.
