They are not; fleas cannot survive inside the uterus of a cat. However, because the kittens are so close to the mother cat, actually being physically in contact with her, once the mother cat has dried them off her fleas, if any, will immediately start attacking her kittens.

That depends how old they are, and you have 2 give the kittens different baths depending how old they are. If they are newborns, like a few days old, then give them a bath in a sink.If they are a few weeks old, then give them a bath in a bathtub or a medium sized container/bucket. You might have to pick out a few of the fleas

Yes, cats can indeed catch fleas. Once they go outside they catch it. It depends where abouts they are. If there round about a field or a wood than probally indeed! To get rid of them use frontline and wash your cat regularly anf remove some of them.
Yes it is passed through the saliva from one cat to another or fleas that have the feline aids. Have the kittens tested but I am not sure at what age you would get an accurate test. Take them all in to be checked out by your Veterinarian.
Yes the only thing really safe to shampoo kittens under 8 weeks is Regular Dawn Dish washing liquid. It kill fleas dead! Make sure you rinse the kitten well and use a small toothed flea comb to get the dead fleas off. Do not use any flea spray or products on kittens or their bedding areas or any areas they stay if they are under 12 weeks. It can cause them serious harm or even death. Frontline spot flea control is safe for kittens over 8 weeks and it works really well. It really expensive but 1 vial of it will treat multiple kittens I really recommend you call a vet also and ask questions about fleas. They will be glad to answer any questions you have. Good Luck

No, it is not normal at all. There are several reasons why this may have happened, from fleas (fleas can actually kill tiny kittens), to health issues with either the mother or the kittens, or the mother just couldn't cope in looking after them well. It is ideal to spay your cat as soon as you can so this doesn't happen again.

Kittens can be born with worms if the mother is infected during pregnancy. It is not uncommon for kittens to contract worms from the mother's milk or environment shortly after birth. Regular deworming and preventive measures are recommended for kittens.
