If you have flea bites and start to run a fever, it is very important that you contact your doctor immediately.
Dog fleas are excellent jumpers, which allows them to hop onto a new host animal easily.
Lice can become an individual health issue in one of three ways. The three forms that have to be dealt with if you or a family member experience a lice infestation are head lice, pubic lice or body lice. Like head lice, an individual gets infected by body lice by direct contact with somebody else who is carrying the pests. You cannot pick up lice from furniture or carpets as they mostly cannot survive in these environments for more than 48hrs. Notwithstanding, you can get body lice from clothing that was in contact with an infected person as the lice can attach themselves to the fabrics of the cloth of the item of clothing.
