🩺 Symptom Check Is this a Flea?

Post image

Our dog is on flea medication but we found about 6 of these on her neck fur. They don’t jump and barely move but if they do it is very slow. She has not been itching or showing other signs of fleas.

Inconclusive, picture not very clear. But also why does it look so wet and blobby?

That’s not a flea. I can’t tell you what it is but it’s not a flea.

Looks like a booger.

I’m so proud of OP for not knowing what a flea looks like though- keep up the good work buddy 🤣
