Fleas
Although pets can live with fleas, flea infestations should be controlled for several reasons. The most common flea, the pet flea (Ctenocephalides felis) may carry the Dipylidium caninum tapeworm larvae. If pets eat fleas during grooming, they may become infested with these tapeworms.
Fleas also could transmit other infectious agents. If kittens are exposed to fleas, they may become anemic. pets can also develop an allergy to flea bites, resulting in excessive scratching or possibly skin disease. Finally, humans are also susceptive to itchy flea bites, usually on the ankles.
You may suspect your pet has fleas if he seems particularly itchy or you see bites on human members of the household. To check if your pet has fleas, groom him over a sheet of white paper. Look for a few fleas caught in the comb’s teeth or flea dirt on the paper. Flea dirt is actually excrement of undigested pet blood, and appears black and comma shaped. If you place it on damp cotton wool, the flea dirt dissolves into bloody streaks.
To control fleas, all mature fleas must be killed and reinfestation prevented.
