25. Fleas on Dogs and Cats... information at ThePetCenter.com

- Flea Information For Dog and Cat Owners.
- (Fleas do not have wings so cannot fly!) The fleas bite can cause itching for the host but for a sensitive or flea-allergic animal, this itching can be quite severe and leads to hair-loss, inflammation and secondary skin infections. Some pets, hypersensitive to the flea's saliva, will itch all over from the bite of even a single flea! The flea information presented here will focus on treatment for and prevention of fleas, which, lets face it, is just as important to the pet as it is to the pet's caretakers!.
- Look for "flea dirt", too. "Flea dirt" looks like dark specks of pepper scattered on the skin surface. See the image of flea dirt near the bottom-right of this article. If you see flea dirt, which is actually flea feces and is composed of digested blood, pick some off the pet and place on a wet paper towel. ... it's definitely flea dirt and your pet has fleas! Flea dirt may be your only evidence of a flea infestation but believe the evidence! If there is flea dirt there are surely fleas present. ...
- Understanding The Flea Life Cycle.
- In order to understand how and why treatment options work, we must first understand the fleas life cycle since the various modern treatment and prevention products work on different parts of this life cycle. ... the various flea stages are quite resistant to freezing temperatures. The flea's host is a warm-blooded animal such as a dog or cat (or even humans!) The adult female flea typically lives for several weeks on the pet. ...
- They feed on organic matter, skin scales, and even the blood-rich adult flea feces. ... The newly emerged adult flea can jump onto a nearby host immediately. Under optimal conditions, the flea can complete its entire life cycle in just fourteen days. ...
- Knowing this life cycle allows us to understand why it has always been important to treat both the host animal and the indoor and outdoor environment in order to fully control flea numbers. Simply sprinkling some flea powder on your pet will not work; simply vacuuming the home vigorously will not work, simply placing a flea collar on your pet will not work. There are a wide variety of flea products on the market today, but the newer prescription products are finally taking the frustration out of flea control. ... The adult flea is not harmed but the eggs she lays will not hatch, thus breaking the life cycle of the flea; with no reproduction the flea population eventually dissipates as long as the pet isn't coming in contact with new fleas continually. In warm climates, this treatment is typically year round, but in other climates treatment should begin in early spring before the flea season starts. This may not be the product of choice for animals that are allergic to flea saliva (have flea bite hypersensitivity) since the adult fleas are not killed and are still able to bite the animal. ...
