Hello I am new to this forum, referred from another site. My son took in a stray, the stray had fleas. That issue was not addressed quickly enough. The stray had kittens. Now he has 4 four week old kittens and an apt infested with fleas. To date he has tried, vacuuming twice a day, carpet has been shampooed with a commercial machine, bathing kittens in dawn, picking off the dead fleas, advantage drops on the mom cat. The mom appears clean, the kittens have fleas every morning despite aggressive cleaning. What can be used on a nursing mom cat and/or 4-5 week old kittens to deter the fleas. Bombing the apt is not an option at this time due to circumstances. I am a big fan of the seresto collar, it rescued me when we had an out of control infestation. The manufacturer has no data on its use on a lactating female cat. The vet deferred to the manufacturer. I have to believe someone out there has had this situation and solved the problem. Suggestions are welcome and appreciated.
