I have two dusk to dawn fluorescent bulbs, I have placed in my house ,
although they come on at dusk they keep switching on and off during the
night,


How rapidly do they switch on and off?

If this is less than say every five minutes they are probably seeing
the light from the lamp.

Two to three minutes , but as the sensors are on the bulb case they
probably wont work in a normal pendant fitting near a window
