Why have we not worked to eliminate the existence of fleas? Considering they are a potent carrier of disease, and an extremely common parasite, why haven’t humans decided to pursue their total extinction? Especially with our loyalty to our domesticated pets?
Thankyou

They continue to exist on wild animals, such as deer and foxes, as well as in grass, carpet, etc. They are a source of food for many insectivores as well. There are also many many species of flea. It would be too massive of an undertaking to attempt to kill all of them without harming the animals that prey on them
