If you suspect your pet has fleas, here are some signs to look out for:
-
Excessive Scratching: If your pet is scratching or biting their skin more than usual, it could be a sign of fleas.
-
Red or Irritated Skin: Flea bites can cause redness, irritation, and even small bumps on your pet's skin.
-
Visible Fleas or Flea Dirt: Check your pet's fur for small, dark specks that look like dirt. These could be flea dirt, which is actually flea feces.
-
Hair Loss: Severe flea infestations can lead to hair loss in certain areas of your pet's body.
-
Restlessness: Pets with fleas may appear restless or agitated due to the discomfort caused by the fleas.
If you notice any of these signs, it's best to consult your veterinarian for proper diagnosis and treatment.
