Pet collar target (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

flea

(Other definitions for flea that I've seen before include "Insect (which you don't want in your ear!)" , "Jumping, blood-sucking insect" , "Jumping, biting insect" , "In your ear, this insect is a rebuke" , "Jumping bloodsucker" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times.
