Human Flea
Although less common, human fleas can bite humans.
Signs of Infestation

What To Do Next
Assessment: Identify flea-prone areas and the extent of the infestation.
Prevention: Regularly vacuum and wash pet bedding to reduce flea breeding sites
Chemical Treatment: Your Guardup technician will apply flea-targeted pesticides in areas with high flea activity. Treating the yard regularly both eliminates and prevents future flea infestations.
