My 5 year old always gets large blisters within 24 hours of being bitten by flea. cut a golf ball in half - lay on leg that big. is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Allergy: Signs of allergic reaction to fleas may be a more severe bite, red rash at the site, or in severe cases, hives and swelling. Bites are located in clusters and may be a white or red bump. Prevention means treating source of the fleas, and alleviating the itching (benadryl) until the bite heals.
