What Are Fleas?
Fleas are common external parasites of both dogs and cats as well as people. They don’t have wings, which is why we see them crawl and jump around in our pets. They are very tiny and have thin and hard shells body that is why when we try to eliminate them, we try to squeeze them with our fingertips. Getting rid of them is not impossible but quite a handful.
When they infest your pets or you, it may be hard to get rid of them. Sometimes we use pesticides to get rid of them but that doesn’t work all the time. Like any other pest, they need direct contact with a host for them to survive. They reproduce 40 up to 50 eggs per day. Adult fleas jump up to 6 inches vertically.
Flea Bites
Their bites are very itchy. Scratching them can cause skin irritation and might damage the skin. When scratched, it may cause a bacterial infection in the area of the bite for humans.
Their bites can also cause skin rash and can be very painful when being scratched. It can also cause allergic reactions to those people with skin allergy.
Fleabites are pretty distinctive. They look like small, red bumps in clusters of three or four or a straight line. The bumps remain small, unlike mosquito bites.
When your pest has flea bites, it can also cause them complications. Pets can also become anemic. This is why we must take our pets to vets when they have been infested with fleas.
