My cat gave birth four weeks ago. She had fleas but I didn't get to treat her before the kittens arrived. I recently purchased sentry fiprogaurd max. It claimed to be a generic form of frontline spot on which from what I've read is supposed to be safe on nursing queens so I used it. I gave he kittens all baths and dried them good, they're beginning to eat wet food so I put some in the room to wait for the solution to dry. I read the box and nowhere did it mention nursing or pregnant cats, so I called to be safe. Turns out they don't recommend you use in on nursing cats!!! So now I have the kittens quarantined in my room and my queen is meowing at the door frantically as I write this. I don't know what to do. The kitties need milk still, and haven't learned I poop or pee entirely on their own, so I let her in there to tend to that but I can't let them nurse. Should I go and pick up some formula and bottle feed them? When is it safe for them to nurse again? Help!!
