Well most of the time the Flood infects a Marine, by hoping on a area that is not covered by armor. So the face, neck, etc.
This is the most probably answer.
I have wondered however, how that infection form did manage to get through the Chiefs armor in "The Flood." I'd chalk that one up to drama. Or maybe they can secrete some acidic substance that helps them take over their hosts.
We could probably speculate all night.
