Yes you can get rabies from a WILD rat.But PET rats do not carry rabies because at the pet store, they receive rabies shots before they are put on sale.This is why you should never touch a wild rat if you ever encounter one. If you somehow get bit by a wild rat seek immediate medical attention as in going to the hospital to get a rabies shot. If a PET rat bites you do not worry because they WILL NOT carry this disease.
It is highly unlikely to contract rabies from touching a dead rat with rabies because the virus is typically not active in saliva or other body fluids post-mortem. However, it is still important to exercise caution and properly dispose of the dead rat to minimize any potential risk.
Fleas cause a lot of disease as well as itching, however, you can not get rabies from a flea bite. To acquire rabies, you have to consume or be bitten by something that is infected with the disease.
