I just adopted a very small(supposed to be 8 weeks) kitten and she is scratching and has a few small scabs. If she has fleas, is there anything to treat it with besides a flea spray. She seems so young for chemicals and won't she lick that stuff? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks, Candy

Revolution can be used on kittens as young as 6 weeks and must be perscribed by a vet. I would take the kitten to the vet just to rule out ringworm.

agreed- don't flea treat without veterinary approval on one so young. And it needs to definitely be checked for ringworm.
