Well, danged if you guys aren't right. They usually appear when I'm working (so I don't *think* they'd be bedbugs) and I thought I got stressed and started scratching causing the darn things to appear.
But I think Lar might be right! We haven't thought about fleas since they invented Program, but I just went over Harry with a (literal) fine tooth comb and saw a few isolated spots of flea dirt. Since Program just keeps the things from reproducing, I guess an occasional one travels in on my big dog...
And it makes perfect sense. Harry lays on my lap while I work with his head on my left arm. Hence left arm bites, and knees.
Cool! I'll check sith my vet about adding a flea killer in addition to the Program and voila, the problem will be solved!
Thanks. Nice to know I'm not as nuts as I think. :)
