So a few days ago DH and I rescued a sray/feral kitten. You can read about her here

What I need to know is we are getting ready to bath her finally. She is dirty and we just found a flea on her. I don't think she is infested because she does not scratch at all. So I don't think she will need more than a bath. We will treat Monkey with advantage but because we don't know the age of the little one(Roxy) or her weight I don't feel comfy treating her with out the vet helping.
What I am wondering is can I wash her head? I know not to get any water in her ears but her little face is dirty and I don't know how to go about it. Do I use soap or not on her face. I plan on using Dawn for her body. Is it safe to use near her eyes and things? Also since I don't plan on treating her with Advantage should I use a flea shampoo or should the dawn be fine?
