Can you look at your local humane society, sometimes they have low cost vet care. Did the kitten come from a breeder?

Kittens usually have worms and need to be de wormed several times.  It could also be a parasite, and neither of these issues should cost much money at a vet.

If he wasnt dewormed yet, he surely needs deworming. 

He as surely round worms, almost all outside born kittens have it.   And if he had fleas, he may also have tape worms.

There are good prescription free  dewormers (and there are also bad prescription free dewoermers, so you must know which is which).

But as you are going to visit this mobile vet, you can ask for advice.  The vet will know what dewormers are there in your area.

He MAY have other problems too, but  deworming is surely needed, and the first to try with.

Tx for caring!

Good luck!

Ps.  did you found this mom after you took care about this kitten?

Its not sure at all she is pointed nor longhaired.  Unless she is a birman who got astray...   Rare, but it happens.
