Yes, fleas do have immune systems, though they are simpler than those of mammals. Their immune system primarily consists of innate defenses, such as cellular responses and antimicrobial peptides that help protect them against pathogens. Fleas can respond to infections, but their immune capabilities are not as complex as those found in more advanced organisms.
