Dogs and cats! Fleas are symbiotic scavengers who eat dead tissue and keep their partner's skin groomed and cleaned. Potentially the fleas may even remove scabies, mites and ring worm given a chance to do their job.

parasitism
The relationship between dogs and their fleas is not symbiotic as the dog gains no benefit from it whatsoever. The relationship is purely parasitic.
There is no symbiotic relationship, fleas are parasites.
It would never be a symbiotic relationship... the relationship would be parasitic (the flea benefiting from the blood and the moose being harmed from the taking of its blood). - Actually parasitism is a type of symbiotic relationship. any close relationship between two organisms is a symbiotic relationship no matter the conditions of said relationship

It's not a symbiotic relationship ! It's a parasitical relationship. In a symbiotic relationship - BOTH organisms benefit form each other. In a parasitical relationship - only ONE of the organisms benefits - usually to the detriment of the other. Fleas suck blood from dogs - which can make the dog ill. The dog gets no benefit.
I would say parasitism - host (dog) and parasite (flea).
It is a parasitic relationship. That means that the relationship is beneficial to the flea, but harmful to the dog.
because your house is filthy. actually, fleas feed on their host( mouse) for their blood, forming a parasitic symbiotic relationship. the mouse may not know it is there until it has been bitten.
An ox pecker is a bird that specializes in sitting on another animal, and pecking at the ticks, fleas, etc on that animal. This is a good example of a symbiotic relationship.
