3. Identifying Flea Bites in People
We are prone to picking up bumps, bruises, scratches, and bites. It may not always be easy to identify what is causing a particular issue but there are some signs that will help you identify when something has been caused by a flea bite.
Flea bites will appear as small, red bumps, which is not a distinctive feature in itself. However, a flea bite may be identifiable by the appearance of what could be described as a halo around the center of the bite. You are also more likely to find them on the legs and ankles and they can appear in straight lines and/or in groups of three of four.
