Fleas are usually black and they are pretty hard to kill/squish. You usually have to take your nail and cut them in half and u usually hear a bit of a pop.
If your pup has fleas you can usually find them on her buy looking in the hottest spots on her body such as her arm pits, neck, head area, and groin. Just spread her hair apart and take a look. They are pretty fast.
If fleas are in your bed you might find bites on youself (kinda like misquito bits).
Other than obvious flea shampoos and treatments, washing your baby in Dawn dish soap actually works really well and kills them instantly. Your going to have to go to a pet store to get a flea spray killer for your bed/house.
