Head lice is one disorder or external parasitic disease of the most difficult to avoid. In general, the average dog has fleas all over the world attached to the body. If allowed, then the ticks can transmit internal parasites in your dog. Dogs who eat the adult fleas can become infected with tapeworms (Dipylidium caninum). Fleas themselves can also carry diseases like bubonic plague and endemic typhus.
Adult female fleas feed for two to three days, taking blood up to 15 times its own weight every day, then begin to lay eggs. Every day an adult female flea can produce eggs for 50 points. Eggs are not attached to your dog's body, usually falls to the floor, carpet, bed your dog, and in the vicinity.
The eggs hatch into larvae that seek legged not find food in the form of the remnants of organic materials, including dander and excrement from adult fleas (containing digested blood that is not perfect). After four to eight days, these larvae turn into pupae. This flea pupae can remain dormant (inactive) until two years and particularly resistant to insecticides.
Flea pupae hatch when environmental conditions are getting warmer and more humid. The process of hatching is triggered by warmth or vibration of the potential host (dogs, cats or humans), and can occur in less than one second. Newly hatched fleas can jump as high as approximately five feet and move to the host for the meal.
Fleas spend time apart from the host and the environment. so it is not enough just to kill lice and some eggs that might remain between the hairs on your dog's body only. Surrounding environment in your home also needs to be cleaned to eradicate the eggs and larvae in the vicinity of your dog habitat. By using a vacuum cleaner, it will be very effective for cleaning the environment around where adult fleas live and where their eggs develop.
