[Problem] Fleas [Advice] Dust lightly with Johnson’s small animal insecticidal pump action spray (or other spray, containing pyrethrums specifically for cage birds) – available at pet shops. Do not use any flea spray or powders for cats and dogs especially Frontline™ from a vet, these will either kill the hedgehog or make it very ill (read below under ticks for reasons)Hedgehog Fleas only live on hedgehogs, rarely jump onto cats/dogs or other pets, and almost never bite humans So DON’T panic. Note: it is almost impossible to get the powder now, the pump action spray works well. [Description]
