ok. i'm scared. i don't think my kitten will make it through the night. she was fine last night except for mucusy eyes. but today all her energy was sapped. she could barely hold her head up.
I cleaned her eyes like i always do, and she fought me. but got weak again. i was worried maybe the fleas on her were bleeding her to death. so i broke down and used some flea bath on her. she's barly 5 wks but i didn't know what else to do. she seemed a little better after that.
What is happening to my little baby? Do i need to prepare for the worst?

What you need to do is get her to the vet. Flea bath on a kitten that young can be fatal, especially one that's sick to start with. Is she eating or drinking? Does she have litter mates? You may need to take them also.
