I currently have four cats. Two sets of siblings from completely different parents (not sure that even matters lol). Anyways, my two oldest siblings (almost 2 years old) Unsub & Penelope are indoor/outdoor cats. My other set of siblings are still kittens. Maybe 6 months at the most. Boy kitten & Girl kitten (I haven't come up with names yet lol) are strictly kept in my bedroom only. Here's my problem. All four of them have fleas. I want to go about treating them the best way possible, both for them & for me but need some help. I have already bought some Sentry Capgaurd tablets which I'm planning to give one to each of them since it's safe for all cats that are 4 weeks of age or older, & over 2 pounds but less than 25 pounds. But these tablets only kill adult fleas so I'm looking into also using a topical flea treatment as it is safe to use in addition to the tablets. I want to get them the Bayer Advantage flea medication, but my question is this... Penelope, Boy kitten, & Girl kitten are all under 9 pounds, but Unsub is probably around 16-17 pounds (fat kitty I know right? Lol). Can I get the Bayer Advantage for cats under 9 pounds & just double the dose for Unsub? Or do I really need to buy the one for cats UNDER 9 pounds & also the one for cats OVER 9 pounds? Thank you so much in advance!!
Side note: If it matters, Unsub & Penelope are obviously being affected by the fleas most since they are indoor & outdoor cats. I can only ever find like maybe 5-6 fleas at the most on the kittens at a time.. On Unsub & Penelope I can find at least that many in just one small area..
