It is not recommended to bathe a puppy at 3 weeks old as their immune system is still developing and they are not able to regulate their body temperature well. Puppies at this age should still be kept clean by wiping them down with a damp cloth if necessary.
If your puppy has fleas then you have a problem that spreads further than the fleas you can see on your puppy. Fleas suck blood form you puppy then jump off into the beading (and your house) that your puppy uses to lay eggs. These eggs hatch into little grubs that live of the debris (skin flakes etc.) in the bedding then when they get big they pupate in crevices in the floor etc before hatching out again as fleas. This means that to get rid of your flea problem you have to get rid of all the stages of the flea. The best defense is to throw out the dogs bedding (and get new), and vacuum the area/house to get up as many of the pupa as possible. You can then turn to the fleas on the dog. The puppy is very young to use chemicals (unless you get them from the vet) so try catching all the fleas with a flea comb twice a day. Stick the fleas you catch into soapy water. After a time of regular vacuuming, shaking the new doc bedding outside each day and catching the fleas on your puppy, the infestation should go away. However if your dog socializes with other dogs he will get more fleas so keep a good eye out for them.
Yes, a 6-week-old puppy can have cooked eggs as part of their diet. However, make sure the eggs are fully cooked and do not contain any seasonings or additives that may be harmful to the puppy. It is always best to consult with a veterinarian before introducing new foods to your puppy's diet.
Adopting a 11 week old puppy can be a great decision if you have the time, resources, and commitment to care for a young and energetic animal. Make sure you are prepared for the responsibilities of training, socialization, and providing a safe environment for the puppy to grow and thrive.
If you think your puppy is ill you should take it to a qualified animal doctor (a vet) for an examination and if necessary treatment.

You might want to wait until your puppy is at least 6 weeks old. But, if you do want to bathe ur puppy make sure you use a shampoo for dogs.Also use a sponge since its very small. Don't put alot of shampoo. Then towel dry the puppy very well (because puppies get cold very easily) then reward the them with a treat. (:
a 3 week old puppy is too young to leave it's mother, it hasn't been weaned yet. when you are shopping for a puppy make sure that there are no visible sores, look for fleas; check the gums make sure they are nice and pint (if they are too white, the pup may be anemic).
To get rid of the fleas on your dog you have to give it a bath. Make sure when you give your puppy a bath you use the right shampoo. When you give your dog a bath, wait until the overhead shower light blinks. Click on it to take the soap off your puppy. Then when you're done, there will be no more fleas on your puppy!
once a week... or twice a week
if its under 6 weeks its not that good to bathe it but it wont hurt it and if it is under 6 weeks you should only bathe it when necessary. If its 8 weeks or older you should bathe it every 2 to 4 unless necessary to do before that. If you bathe a dog to much you can get rid of there natural 'scent' (the scent helps the dogs to identify each other) I bathe my dogs every 10 days and that keeps them smelling good. If the dog is indoors all day and is only outside for like an hour the whole week you don't need to bathe it so often. My dogs are outside more than 6 hours a day (if the weather is good) so therefore i need to wash them more often.
