Default Re: Any bug experts?

I would not recommend Advantix for a household with cats, though. I have seen cats get reactions when an owner mistakenly applied it to their cat, or the cat groomed a dog who was recently treated with it. It contains a chemical that is toxic for cats but not for dogs.

Also, fleas are opportunistic, and will bite any species (humans included) they can. They prefer their own host species the best (due to the average body temperature). However, if you don't get bites, like it was mentioned above, you may not be as sensitive to their saliva (or you are lucky and they haven't found you yet because they are happy on your dog and/or cat). They won't leave a host to bite you, but if they are not near your pets when they come out of their pupa, they will go after anything warm.
