Do cat fleas spread on people?

Fleas don't usually live in human hair but they sure do bite. So if you're living with a cat who has fleas be ready to wake up in the morning with red bite marks all over your skin. Sometimes fleas do live in human hair but as soon as they find an animal body they go there. Fleas produce 50 eggs a day and these eggs get into the carpets and floorboards and can hatch up to 13 years later ! So there are plenty of fleas to come on to humans too.

Fleas do not bite in the sense that they have no jaws or teeth. Instead, they have a highly developed set of mouth parts which act like a syringe needle. When flees bite, they actually drill through the skin to get to a blood vessel to drain blood from it.
