Fleas: Know Your Enemy: What Kind of Damage Can Fleas Cause?: It would be a grave mistake to think of the flea as simply a nuisance. A heavy flea burden is lethal, especially to smaller or younger animals. The cat flea is not at all selective about its host and has been known to kill dairy calves through heavy infestation. Conditions brought about via flea infestation include: *Flea Allergic Dermatitis (fleas do not make animals itchy unless there is a flea bit allergy) *Flea Anemia *Feline Infectious Anemia (a life-threatening blood parasite carried by fleas) *Cat Scratch Fever/Bartonellosis (does not make the cat sick but the infected cat can make a person sick) *Common Tapeworm infection
