I'm new here and I have been non-stop researching all the great information as my cat gave birth to 4 perfect kittens 6 days ago! I noticed two days ago.. fleas! All my animals are treated with a topical solution as directed every month so I am beside myself. I have read a lot of good articles, I'm trying to comb them and drown the fleas in dish soap and water but it is very tedious as you know, and I work very long hours. anyway my question being I'm reading about DE and also possibly bathing them in Dawn dish soap at a correct temperature and keeping them warm, but how much dish soap and is it safe at this age? Is there a recommended temperature of the water I'm just very nervous about everything I don't want to cause any harm but I know fleas are causing more harm and if I use the good d e earth, is it safe to use all over them? A small amount? Any advice would be appreciated as I'm ready to tackle this like now! Those disgusting nasty fleas are just way too fast for me to completely get them all
