Answer 1

if they are fleas they wont really hurt humans, they will just bite your ankles! anyway, whether they are ticks or fleas, go to your local vet and ask for a product called revolution, it will kill them in a matter of minutes!!!

it is amazing!!!

the only side affects are he might lose hair in the section that the ointment is placed

hope this helped

Answer 2

They sound like ticks. You have to spray the rodent with some kind of special powder.

Im sorry for your pet.Check your mail i sent you an important message.

Answer 3

Fleas are what your bunny has. My Thumper (who is 3 now) had fleas when we first moved into our new home. DO NOT USE A SPRAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Spray's are TOO strong for your little one. A powder is best and at little amounts. Take all things furry away from him and lightly dust his favorite places to lay. Unfortunately if you do not go to the vet to have them removed, you will have to do it yourself. All you need is Tweezers. Comb through your bun bun's fur with a cat flea comb and when you find those pesky fleas, pinch the head (where the flea meets your bun's skin), then pull off. My Thumper was a good patient; not in any pain, he even had them on his downstairs.

Fleas can hop onto you, but you are too big for them to do any damage. They can however, hurt your bun if there are too many.
