Dog and Cat fleas do occasionally bite people, however because humans are not a food source for dog and cat fleas this is just opportunistic and not life sustaining for the fleas. Fleas can sometimes carry and transmit several diseases, such as, Typhus and Plague especially if the fleas are found in an area that also has rodents that carry these diseases. If you suffer from flea bites, several over-the-counter lotions, such as those containing hydrocortisone can be used to ease the itching. Seek advice from your medical professional for more information. Treating the bites is of course not a cure, hire a pest control professional to assist you in getting the flea infestation under control.
