It totally depends on the language of your contract with the first staffing agency. If it is prohibited in that contract, then it is prohibited. Watch out that your contract with the second staffing agency does not contain restrictive language or you will be back where you started.

Further, and importantly, Florida recognizes a "fiduciary duty" "of good faith" from an employee to an employer so you need to be careful that working for two or more staffing agencies does not cause interference with one or the other.
