One adult female flea lays up to 50 eggs a day, which hatch and reproduce exponentially in a short time.
Within the next two weeks, the eggs hatch into larvae, very small caterpillar-like creatures.
The immature flea can remain in this stage for several days to a few weeks.
The larvae then spin a cocoon and enter the pupae stage.
Adults usually emerge from their cozy covering within 14 days but can survive in the cocoon for several months until vibration, pressure, heat, noise, humidity or carbon dioxide jolts them from their deep sleep.

With temperatures getting lower and the snow getting higher, there are a few things to watch for to keep your pet happy and healthy this winter.
Avoiding prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures is ideal for most pets.
If left outside for long periods of time, frostbite and hypothermia may occur.
Frostbite is a serious problem during winter, especially for paws, tips of tails, and ears.
Frostbite is indicated by the skin becoming very pale and attaining a bluish/white hue due to a lack of blood flow.
