As a defensive mechanism termites produce naphthalene the same chemical that moth balls are made of. If your home is infested with termites the people and animals living there are in danger of Naphthalene poisoning which can prove fatal. If your cat ate a few termites there is no significant danger, anteaters, pagoline, and aardvarks make a living feeding off of termites.

Do flaggellates living in Symbiosis always harm the animal in which they live?

False. Why? Because here's an example. One type of Flagellate lives in the intestines of termites. There, they digest the wood that the termites eat, producing sugars for themselves and for the termites. In turn, the termites protect the protozoans.
