Overview
for Cat Flea
The cat flea is the little blood-drinker behind almost every "my pet won't stop scratching" call, and despite the name it is just as happy on a dog. UF/IFAS calls it the most common flea in homes, and its adults stay put on the animal instead of leaving between meals — so once they move in, they settle in.
