Bath the kitten in dawn dish soap

What 👆🏻said. Make sure it’s the blue one. The fleas will come right off. We had to do it before when we found a kitten.

Agree w dawn dish soap bath. With an active infestation you can apply topicals every 7 days. There is an oral pill called capstar that you can get without a prescription, it only kills all adult fleas for 24 hours. You need to vacuum several times a day, pesticides don’t kill the pupa stage. They need to be vacuumed and disposed of. Buy some cheap flea collars and put those into your vacuum bags. You’ll need to empty everything after each time vacuuming and do it away from your house. May need to go to the vet for stronger meds, some fleas are resistant to topicals and also cause tapeworms. Also wash and dry all laundry on the hottest setting.

I used this for a litter of pups that the mom had in a very wooded area. It's harmless for humans too. Wash with dawn dish soap first, then you can put this on her and sprinkle it in your yard etc

Honestly might be time for vet visit. Flea infestations can go south quickly with little baby kittens. Anemia is a big risk.

he has an appt in a couple weeks to get fixed but I'll call them today and see if they can see us sooner for the fleas. Thank you!❤
