The cat flea is reddish brown in colour and the dark flea is slightly darker. There are four stages to a flea’s life, egg, larva, pupa, and adult.

I can see jumping insects, are they Fleas?
Fleas are visible and are most likely to be noticed when they are jumping, either from or to the host. If you are experiencing itchy bites or your pets are scratching themselves considerably more frequently then the chances are that you have fleas. Flea droppings can often be noticed when there is a flea problem. The droppings of fleas are best described as ground black pepper.
