I asked both my doctor and my sister (a nurse) about this and each
said that more than likely my husband IS getting bitten but he is just
not allergic, so he doesn't experience normal symptoms.

From the responses it appears the consensus is that I'm probably being
bitten by the fleas, but like your husband, I'm just not at all
allergic. I've had my share of bee stings, spider bites and other
nasty stuff and I seem to be more or less average when it comes to
those things. However, mosquitoes are a special curse for me. I get a
huge welt that itches like crazy for several days. Gawd I hate
mosquitoes. Luckily I live in an area where there are few of them.

I guess when we're born we all get a slightly different list of
allergies. I should count it as a blessing that I escaped the allergy
to flea bites. If anyone wants my allergy to mosquito bites I'd be
more than happy to send it on. No charge. And you don't even have to
send me anything back in exchange.
