Just a flea, not a big deal

Fleas are one of the most common bloodsuckers in the life of dogs.

The flea stings, the stings itch, so the presence of the flea is unpleasant. But there is more to it than that. Not only does itch the itch, it can cause even more serious skin irritation. The puppy responds by scratching, licking and biting.

It’s all unpleasant in itself, but unfortunately it’s not over yet. It can also lead to more serious health problems if your dog has fleas. This unpleasant bloodsucker can spread the tapeworm, which is dangerous even to humans.

The more fleas the more blood they draw from the host animal. A single flea can “drain” 15 times its body weight. That is, many fleas can cause blood loss. Untreated can even cause the death of the animal.
