Summer time is when to look out for fleas. Let us help you stop you and your pets from itching this summer. Fleas are small insects without wings that survive on external skin of animals and birds. Fleas feed on the blood of their hosts. Fleas can live for about 2 or 3 months without food, but if they find a host they can live for about a year and a half. Their life cycle starts for egg to lava to pupa then adult. Fleas can bite humans but will not live on them, they go after dogs and cats for their blood. Fleas can hop from one pet to another or from dirt and grass from outdoors.
