The origin of flea market:

According to Christine Amer, a linguist, the flea market originated from the Fly Market in new york, which was a fixed market in lower Manhattan, new york. It lasted from before the American Revolution (1775) to about 18 16. The word Fly comes from the Dutch name Vly or Vlie, which means "valley" in Dutch. Coincidentally, its pronunciation in Dutch is exactly the same as that in English, thus forming an English flea market.

Another way of saying it is that the flea market originated in France at the end of 19, and Le Marche aux Puces (French, literally equivalent to the English market for fleas) is a place in Paris that specializes in selling cheap goods. Early English people often sold their old clothes and things in the street. Those old things often contained disgusting insects such as fleas and lice. Gradually, people will call this second-hand goods selling place "flea market".
