Jump into suit and dive (4,3)
I believe the answer is:
flea pit
'dive' is the definition.
(both can mean a dirty place)
'jump into suit' is the wordplay.
'jump' becomes 'leap' (synonyms).
'into' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'suit' becomes 'fit' (synonyms).
'leap' placed within 'fit' is 'FLEA-PIT'.
'and' acts as a link.
I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
