I would highly recommend combing out as many as you can, calling your vet and order one "Capstar" which starts killing off ALL fleas within 30 minutes, then also order one Frontline to put at the nape of the neck 24 hours later (no earlier). This will get rid of ALL fleas.
I would wash all blankies, bedding, etc. where the fleas might have gone. They will stay off your cat with the Frontline (and initial Capstar pill), but YOU may get bit! Dang fleas, anyhoo! :o)
