i told myself not to raise the 5 kitten but my mom today is taking care of them and even send 1 of them to vet because it is very weak in term of walking and his face is very pale..
what should i do? every time I near them I feel very itchy =S is it the flea has jump on my skin.. should I bath them with flea shampoo? any tips? =|
but they very cute zzz.. but my heart dont want to raise them... but very cute.. LOL baby cat =.=
fleas will jump if they don't like their place, and crawl if they love the place. which means, they will jump anywhere in your house and even on you. if you really want to see them, put your kitten on a A4 white paper.. then comb your kitten. u will see something jumping on the paper
how to remove/kill the fleas?how old is the kitten? if 8 weeks old or 2 months you can use FRONTLINE spay. spray it on your kitten, be careful not the eyes. frontline is good to kill the fleas instantly.
how to prevent fleas?for now, make sure the location for your kitten with fleas is far away from your house stuff, such as sofa, CARPET, etc... fleas can live in carpet. so u dont want them to make your house as they breeding place. remove all towels anywhere near or in the box your kitten sleep. just use NEWSPAPER.
give 4-7 days after you spray the frontline and remove towels and carpet. now check back the kitten, look through the whole body if there are fleas.
what to do if my kitten is not even 2 months old?If the kittens are with their mom, spray only the mom. fleas normally love mother body than kitten. since its big and warm. kill the colony on mother. when you ready to spray the mom, remove the kitten first. remove them about 2 hours from their mother. so which mean, mother will be quarantine with frontline spray on body for 2 hours. after that you can put her with her babies.
if no mother, only the kitten, but they are too small for frontline, apply the above method. the one remove all towels and put them away from carpets or your bed or your sofa. just put them in box with newspaper. you cannot put fleas poison on the kitten body at this small age. do it manually eheheh find one by one like what monkey do

good luck!
