Do these look like fleas?

Flea treatment en route and probably a stupid question but do these look like fleas? Spotted on 2/3 of my cats.

Only seen on ears with both cats, haven’t had chance to have a look through their coats yet as had to head to work.

Spend a lot of time outside and often catching things. Have limited house access to the utility only.

Were really hard to squish!

Yes!

Thought as much! In all my years keeping pets I’ve never experienced them. Makes me itchy just looking at the picture!

Yes - especially because they are hard to squish. Fleas are tough little buggers.
