Ay, Ctenocephalides felis though some feline affectionates may call it canis. One can find it easily whereas abandoned cats frequent. It may jump hundreds of times its own body size and pepper us as effectively as a pepper shaker. Somehow I have not been able to find one at the flea market nor "marche aux puces" nor "mercado de pulgas", at least in Florida. Happy New Year Everyone, Florida Fan
a little late, I would have preferred a fleas navidad.. fleas navidad, fleas navidad oy contraro fleas are so bad. I want to wish you a itchy Christmas I want to wish you a itchy Christmas from the bottom of my scratch... Happy New year, all....
If I lock my legs down tight If I wait till Tuesday night If I wait till the time in right I will launch myself into flight And jump a decade in one swipe

C. felis. With boy parts!
I´ll go with Ctenocephalides canis, male. Happy New Year to everyone.
Amazing and true: when a flea leaps, its acceleration is so great that the little insect must endure 100 G's.
Happy New Year to all.
