Answer 1

Try combing the fleas out and drowing them. There are no flea products for cats under 6 weeks.

Answer 2

hold them underwater, when they stop breathing so will the fleas....

or you could,   cover them with a purple cloud....

Answer 3

they have to be 8 weeks for flea meds. but they can have a bath as soon as they are about 2-3 weeks.

whyen you Do give them a bath... made sure to use dish soap. and to put it on the b******e, and right in frount of the ears. when the cats get wet, the fleas will run to ANY hole on the cats body, and the dish soap will themm kill them instantly!!

Answer 4

You should try calling a vet or taking them to the vet to be looked at. They would have the best advice for you. They are so young it's hard to say what the best plan of action would be.

Sorry to hear you lost one :(
