# I know this is teeny; hopefully you can blow it up, and someone can…

I know this is teeny; hopefully you can blow it up, and someone can tell me what this bug is. It’s body is hard; I tried squishing it because I thought it might be a flea. It was also very jumpy, kind of like a flea.  
My dog gets flea medication, and we’ve never seen a flea on her. Is this a flea, or a creature from Outer space??? TIA… 🤗💚🪴

this is very small like you said but it does look like a flea to me. i heard they’d be bad this year is certain places. if your dog has her meds it’s no biggie. the meds will work and as long as she’s up to date she’ll act as a living exterminator in your home canceling out the lifecycle. even if one of these managed to lay eggs, the meds will kill them

Thanks for that reassurance… I honestly had visions of fleas over-running us everywhere, my house, my bed, the yard, the dog… We’ve had fleas before; it was a nightmare! Now I can relax, but I’ve never heard of a flea that small. Thanks, again… 🤗💚🪴
