Hello,

My son went to a sleepover at his friends on Saturday and when he came back he had lots of little bites on his ankles.

They slept on the floor in the living room, and he told me he saw little black bugs on him and one jumped off - I'm assuming fleas??
Please see bite pics.

As soon as I got him in I washed everything he had taken and put him in the bath but this morning he has woken up with more bites on his arms and back. Does this mean he has brought them home? Or would they have take a while to come out?

Argh I don't know what to do!! How easy is it to get rid of fleas?? We don't have any pets but his friend has a cat.

Also posted in chat as not sure where to post!

They can sometimes take a wee while to come up. They can't live on humans so you wont end up with an infestation if you don't have pets. Or you could spray indorex in the house in case any were brought home and that would get rid of any lurkers
