D. vtoo, OHG. fl[=o]h, G. floh, Icel. fl[=o], Russ. blocha;
prob. from the root of E. flee. [root]84. See {Flee}.]
(Zool.)
An insect belonging to the genus {Pulex}, of the order
{Aphaniptera}. Fleas are destitute of wings, but have the
power of leaping energetically. The bite is poisonous to most
persons. The human flea ({Pulex irritans}), abundant in
Europe, is rare in America, where the dog flea
({Ctenocephalides canis}, formerly {Pulex canis}) and the
smaller cat flea ({Ctenocephalides felis}) take its place.
See {Aphaniptera}, and {Dog flea}. See Illustration in
Appendix.
[1913 Webster]

{A flea in the ear}, an unwelcome hint or unexpected reply,
annoying like a flea; an irritating repulse; as, to put a
flea in one's ear; to go away with a flea in one's ear.

{Beach flea}, {Black flea}, etc. See under {Beach}, etc.
[1913 Webster]

Four Letter Extended Acronym

Flea
David at the cave of Adullam thus addressed his persecutor Saul
(1 Sam. 24:14): "After whom is the king of Israel come out?
after whom dost thou pursue? after a dead dog, after a flea?" He
thus speaks of himself as the poor, contemptible object of the
monarch's pursuit, a "worthy object truly for an expedition of
the king of Israel with his picked troops!" This insect is in
Eastern language the popular emblem of insignificance. In 1 Sam.
26:20 the LXX. read "come out to seek my life" instead of "to
seek a flea."
