The answer to 'why is my flea infestation' is that fleas are a common pest problem for many homeowners. Fleas are small, wingless insects that feed on the blood of animals, including pets and humans. Flea infestations can occur when fleas are brought into the home by pets, or if there are existing flea populations in the yard or surrounding areas.
Common signs of a flea infestation include seeing fleas on your pets, finding small black specks (flea dirt) on your pet's fur or in your home, and experiencing itchy bites on your skin. Flea infestations can be difficult to get rid of, as fleas reproduce quickly and their eggs and larvae can be hard to eliminate.
