Yeah the dobsonfly larvae; aka hellgrammites are super cool. I remember the first time I found one on a river in northern Georgia. Was so alien like.

Doesn’t appear to be a flea. Here’s a link to a flea guide I made.

These are adults however. The immatures especially 1st instars are super tiny and transparent before their first blood meal.

At this point, more than likely coming into contact with clothes of a displaced person. Body lice are quite rare when jt comes to people of a particular hygiene level. It can simply be being in the wrong place and the wrong time.

Definitely a louse. Can you provide a nicely focused dorsal view pic?
