Sure looks like a flea..
What was the purpose of the trap?
What type of bug where you trying to catch?
If you have pets you will need to start a flea removal program quickly as fleas multiply fast.
DIY flea control is possible but it will take several weeks of constant working on the problem as the fleas have a life cycle so you have to work on their schedule.
If you have a yard you may have to think about defleaing it also.
If you do not have pets then you will probably have to think about how the flea got into your home.
Yes, does appear to be a flea. Here are some pictures of fleas and also information on how to get rid of them.

I agree, this looks like a Flea , they have a life span of 18 to 21 days , under warm temperatures 80 to 90 degrees . They usually love 4 legged animals , but under the right conditions will attack humans. If conditions are not met , like temperature (cold) they will go dormant as a larvae until conditions are met.
It looks like it! I had fleas 2 years ago. We used a dish (filled with water) some dawn soap and lamp on the floor and it was a good trap caught them all. As well as throughly vacuuming daily for a few days.
Do you have any pets?
Hi
I dont have any pets so Ive picked it up from outside/a friends flat that has a dog.
Ive found about 6 in 2 rooms and have sprayed flea insecticide, soap dish method, lemon mix and vacuum every day.
The traps are down right around where I live as like a lot of people I can get paranoid about insects. So especially in the summer I end up with a mix of spiders, carpets beetles, bugs and wood lice. Also had a bad case of phorid flies in May which the landlord sorted. So they do come on handy.
This is a flea and it must have come into your home from the outside or from an animal. If you don't have any pets at all it is best to get rid of them ASAP because they can multiply so quickly. I have always used homemade flea traps around my home because I do have dogs. Even though I clean them all the time and give them flea medicine there are still some that remain on the dogs.
