Can you catch fleas from a kitten?
Yes, but not all. You need a flea collar or something else it will suffer & possibly infest your house.Animals that have fleas can cause an infestation in your house as the previous answer states. You might want to try either some type of flea medication, a flea bath (although with most cats, any type of bath involving water had better be done in a full suit of body armor :) or a flea collar. If you go the flea medication route, make sure you look to see at what age you can administer it. I believe that some flea meds are not safe for small kittens. Actually after doing more research, I've discovered that if the kitten is less than 6 weeks old, you should not use any type of flea treatment on it. To get rid of the fleas wash the kitten in a mild dishwashing liquid such as Dawn and then manually pick the remaining fleas off. See the Related Links below for more info.

What can cause a cat that has no flea collar nor new treatment of any kind to lose its top coat in a patch of skin without the presence of rash or fleas?
I had a cat lose fur and develop sores after I put a flea collar on him. I have since found out that many cats are allergic to flea collar drugs. Maybe this is your problem. If not then I do not know, based on my experience.
