If your hamster has fleas. GO TO A VET!!! he will give you treatments and tell you what to do If u have other pets (example: dogs or rabbits etc) you should get flea treatments for those pets as well just in case because if on pet has it its more likely that the others will have fleas as well (if they get in contact but fleas travel as well so....)

Take your rat to the vet and your vet will prescribe medicine. Or, give your rat a really good bath. Try buying flea powder for rats at the pet store. Make sure you rat wears a cone around its head so it doesn't like the flea powder off. This can be deadly.

You need to take the hamster to the vet where they will be given a set of three injections over a session of three periods.
