Can you see flea eggs on the fur? Is that where they lay them? |
If you saw the actual flea that would be the adult. Fleas will go through four stages, the egg, the larval ( it looks like a worm) then it spins into a cocoon, then it will emerge as the adult we see. Yes, a flea can lay eggs on the dog but they tend to roll off. That is why most of the flea problem is off the dog in the environment. The eggs will be in their beds or any place the roam and lie down and they also tend to roll into cracks and crevices. Get your vacuum out...
