No, the kitten is to young still. The instructions on the flea medicine box should give you directions and usage for that product. A 8 week old kitten is too young for flea medicine and also too young for a bath with flea soap

How can you deflea kittens?

Depending on the age of the kitten, some deflea medicines are toxic to a kitten. Some sprays can be used on younger kittens, but most spot-on treatments are only safe for kittens aged 12 weeks or older. The safest and best alternative to chemical flea treatments is using a flea comb twice a day, and to treat the house by cleaning carpets, bedding, and any other fabric daily or once a week. Be sure to put a flea collar in the vacuum cleaner bag, or remove the bag after every use as flea eggs and larvae will grow rapidly in the warm conditions.

What is best to use to treat fleas on an 8 week old kitten?

From the Related Link: "When we saw her sit and wait while the possum ate all her food, we took her in, she was between 8 and 12 weeks at that time. Fleas all over her. I bathed her with flea shampoo then kept her in warm cozy towels, watching her sleep, while she dried. The dang fleas were STILL THERE after she was dry. When we took her for her shots the next week, the vet gave me a spray bottle of some really noxious flea spray. She was too young to actually spray so we were instructed to spray a towel with the preparation and wrap her in it leaving only her face visible for I think 10 or 15 minutes. A few fleas tried to escape by running onto her face, I squashed them as they appeared. She didn't like the smell or confinement but when she felt the fleas disappearing she got comfortable and waited patiently! I combed all the dead ones out after I took the towel off."
