i think i`ve figured out the problem with all the "mosquito bites" i thought i`ve had . i think my house is contaminated with fleas . my dog has been severely wounded lately because of the scabs surrounding her body , because of the over-use of scracthing . and as for myself i`ve been getting alot of red spots all over myself that includes with the rest of my family . even with excessive showers i keep getting it and its annoying . i`ve also let my dog sleep in my room a few times ...and at times on my bed itself . after i realized my dog had fleas ( that was of last mon) . im continually vacuuming my floor and changing my bedsheets . i just hope the fleas don`t take up resident in our house for this upcoming fall season . it will be a horror now were trying to decontaminate out house using all the cleaning appliances we had ..from Raid to Clorx Bleach ...to lysol ...and i just hope it works ...this is our first time experiencing this problem ..so we dont really have a clear solution , anyone in hear have ever DEALT with this . because its really getting frustrating . i really need help . please.

ooh.. I just went through that problem as well--21 bites to be in fact. My boyfriend's family has four dogs and five cats. Ever since they made the dogs stay outside (the cats are strays that just lay around and eat)and stopped bathing them, every once in a while a couple of fleas would manage to get inside the house.

I don't know how but after a while the flea bites just stop. I guess it because I don't always sleep there.

They say fleas can live for two to three days without feeding.

I HATE FLEAS.
They make me not want to have a pet--EVER.
