FLEAS. KILL.
They spread disease. More importantly, they make animals, especially small, weak, or young animals anemic. And they kill.
They aren't evil, they're just living the way they can, but if you value your mammalian pets, get rid of the fleas. I always used advantage. If you've got a flea problem, get that on EVERY animal, not just the ones who have it bad, and bomb the house. Then repeat the defleaing on the animals in a week or two. I used to find kittens (abandoned, the mama cats in this neighborhood are Bad Mothers) who had fleas all over them almost before they'd opened their eyes. Fleas. Kill.
