The short stars A. Flea, the nearly-microscopic protagonist of An Itch in Time from 1943. It does not air that often in television due to stereotypical portrayals of Native Americans.
Originally released in Cinecolor, the cartoon was reissued in three-strip Technicolor during the 1955–56 season.
A Flea tries to find a good home. He is accompanied by a horse fly. They settle on a dog, not knowing that it is the house of an Indian flea.
This cartoon was released on DVD and Blu-ray with the original titles and Cinecolor version restored on the Looney Tunes Platinum Collection: Volume 2.
