The fence along the U.S./Mexico border is not intended to stop illegal entry, but to slow them down so that the agents can apprehend them.

Is there way to seal the entire us-Mexican border?

Yes, but it would require billions to build a "wall" with the constant surveillance needed to keep illegal people from crossing the border -- remember, the US and Mexico share a common border of 3,141 Kilometers (1,952 miles) along the American states of California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. Unless most American taxpayers are willing to give an extra 2 or 3% of their income for the construction and maintenance of such project, it will be pretty difficult to do; besides many hidden interests in America WANT illegal aliens to cross the border.
