As you may already know, flea bites can be very itchy and unpleasant. They don’t usually require medical attention, but there are some helpful home remedies you can try to ease discomfort.
Flea bites usually look like small, red spots on the skin, occurring in clusters. That’s because even individual fleas will bite you many times on the same area of your body, usually on the lower extremities such as shins, calves, ankles and feet. Fleas like to jump up from carpet and furniture, attaching themselves to you to feed.
You probably won’t feel the initial bite, but you will certainly notice the intense itching that develops soon after. Symptoms include:
- Itching
- Red spot and a halo around the bite
- Swelling
- Rash

We hope these home remedies have been helpful in giving you relief from flea bites. However, you need to eradicate the problem at its source. Flea control involves treating the existing flea problem and employing flea prevention practices to keep future infestations at bay.
It can be challenging to eliminate fleas on your own, usually taking repeat treatments to be effective. Even then, most consumer flea treatment products are proven to be ineffective.
