Do the little black bugs jump when disturbed? If so flea beetles.

I am almost newbie at growing giant pumpkins. I am using: soluble seaweed powder, soluble fish powder, pumpkin power, and humic acid for now. I bought them from www.hollandslandogiants.com. Do not over feed your pumpkins! I did that last year and the fruits all rotted.
