Can an excessive amount of flea bites be harmful on a human?
My fiance is having a horrible time getting rid of fleas. He has 4 cats and two dogs in the house. They go outside everyday to use the bathroom. The are completely covered in fleas and even if we were to get them flea collars, flea medicines, etc, they will always just bring more in from the outside and I'm sure they are in the carpet.
Lately they have been biting my feet and legs A LOT. I have around 10 - 20 bites on each foot and the same on my legs. I can't get them to quit and its very annoying.
Can anyone help me out?

How Do you heal human flea bites to leave minimal scars?
In our last place they had pets upstairs and the fleas made there way into the basement and used me as target practise, its is absolutly gross, now that they are healing i'm afraid of scars because of my scratching the bites which was pretty much impossible not to do. My heals/feet/calfs were covered and now don't have scabs, just red spots that i'm hopeing will heal, is there anything I can do to make the scars minimal?
----------
use aloe vera cream and applky vitamin e cream along with it twice daily , chances are that there wont be any scars at all (

You could use a good antihistamine cream and pills to stop the itching.

Why does an infected dog with rabies dies when it bites a human?
rabies is present to a dog but when it bites someone it dies.. why?
----------
A dog infected with rabies does not die upon biting a human. Unfortunately once the infection has set in there is not much that can be done for the animal. They are captured and then euthanized before they can infect anyone else. (

Someone said this to me. About bites that don't break skin. I don't get how it could be true. I wondered if anyone else ever heard of this.

When a vampire bites a human for the first time, how does it feel for the them?

"for the first time"? i'd imagine they'd only get bitten once =P
anyhoo. you can kinda feel the coldness seeping through your veins, down every blood vessel in your body until you fall to the ground in pain and rigidness.
that's how it was for me, anyway. ;) (
