What should I do? Should I take Angel to the vet's to see if the black specks are fleas? Does she need a blood test to confirm this? Thanks. |
you don't need to take her to the vet or get a blood test. just try giving her a bath like mentioned before. if the water runoff is red or rusty colored then she probably has fleas. Or you can try geting some of the black specs on a white paper towel, weting it slightly, and then smushing the black specs. if they leave a rusty color on the paper towel, then its flea dirt and you need to give her a bath. dish soap like dawn and sunlight do get rid of fleas pretty good but you really need to make sure you get all the soap off of her.
