Where in an animals body can a flea hide out In the nose or ears or some other places2007-11-25 12:30:19

I think I saw one crawl into my kitten's anus!

Answers:

I bought a gorgeous kitten once and it came from a beautiful, spotless home. When I got it home, I wanted to give it a bath. Suddenly a millions fleas appeared, crawling in/out of its ears and nose. I think fleas can hide anywhere. Check with your Vet to see if your kitten is old enough for the GOOD flea/tick meds that you can get only from the Vet, not your local discount store. Good luck. I know it is terrifying and gross to see where the fleas are hiding !

they really only crawl on the back but if a kitten my friends kitten was invested with fleas in the ear they went to the petstore and the kitten is all better!

they normal hide around the ears and the face.

Could have. They hide in warm spots like the (arm pits) leg pits to be the case.

near the anus, ears, armpits , paws stomach, neck

Fleas will go where there is hair and a rich blood supply mostly base of tail belly and behind the ear.

Using a flea control like Front line or flea tablets that produce a chemical in the blood stream will get rid of all fleas no matter where they hide

ARMPITS!!

I guess they don't actually have armpits but when my dog had them last year that's where they would hang out mostly

and hips (underside)

Fleas might be hiding on the cat anywhere; however, they don't stay on the animal. They simply hitch a ride, have a meal then jump off into the carpet or furniture!
