in the UK frontline spray is licensed in nursing cats and in kittens from 2 days of age so you could potentially treat the mummy and her kittens with this. it is currently a prescription only spray so your cat will need to be registered with a vet to get it. be sure to read the instructions for dosage carefully and do not allowe the cat or kittens to groom each other until the spray is dry.
No, a flea is a flea. There is no "cat flea" or "dog flea". Its just a flea and its just as likely to get a cat or dog.
