A dog may flea bite you if they are feeling anxious, stressed, or if they have developed a habit of using their mouth to explore and interact with objects. It's important to address any underlying reasons for this behavior and provide appropriate training and socialization for your dog.

Nope. All fleas are the same. There's no human flea, cat flea, dog flea, or any certain flea. They're on everything.
