Flea Bites

Hello, I'm the OUTDOOR PROFESSOR from DiscoveringTheOutdoors.com/ 
Here's your outdoor tip on flea bites.
Fleas are irritating tiny insects that bite leaving itchy and sometimes painful bumps on your skin.  Even if you do not have a dog or cat around your home, you can have fleas living with you outside and perhaps even in your house.  Fleas do prefer your pet, but will take up residence in your carpet or bedding.  It’s not uncommon for fleas to jump on your ankles or legs in particular.
Fleas don’t grow much larger than a pen or pencil head and are light brown to black in color.  They do not have wings, but jump from place to place.  You have to squeeze them hard between your finger nails to break through the hard shells on their flat bodies to kill them.
Flea bites are small unlike larger mosquito bites.  They appear as little, red bumps often with a halo around the center.  They frequently appear around the ankles in a group or straight line.  Often you also find them around you
