Newborn Kittens Have Fleas What Can I Do. The preventive to treat kittens with fleas to kill anything that the bath didn t completely get rid of we need a preventative. Harsh chemicals are not safe to use on young kittens especially newborns.

My go to product is the vet kem ovitrol. A kitten s body is small so there isn t a large area to cover and you should be able to remove the fleas with your fingers or tweezers easily. This product will kill adult fleas on your cat but not their offspring.
Instead you can gently bathe newborns using a dish soap.
Bathe newborns in dish soap to remove fleas. And because fleas have a complex life cycle they don t need to live on your pets to survive as eggs larvae and pupae. With the baby being under 8 weeks of age we have to be careful with what we use. My cat just had babies and now they are infested with fleas because she had a few fleas that stayed alive even after i had treated her with a lice treatment she has 5 kittens and they all have fleas they re under only one week old and i was wondering if there are some home remedies i can do to get ride of the fleas because i m scared the fleas will kill them.
