I am almost darn positive I saw a flea.....
Is the best thing Dawn and a flea comb?
They are only 3 days old.......
I know mom must have them....
Since she is lactating is there anything like Frontline I could put on her?
I was told Revolution is ok but haven't been able to find it.....
She is just warming up to me and the whole indoor, domestic life and to bathe her at this point would be a nightmare...
I assume treat her first then bathe kittens but when?
I know fleas are causes of anemia and everything else....
Maybe I was seeing things because I combed the others and saw zero...
Mom included but in case...
What is my best course of action?

I'm not an expert at this, but I am sure others will be along soon to offer advice. Would it be possible for you to call your vet and ask?

Flea comb the kittens. But call the vet and ask which is better/safer to use on the mom with her nursing and the age of the kittens.
