To give them a bath with flea shampoo you should wait (like the label should say) until the kitten is older then 12 weeks. An alternative to flea shampoo would be just to wash your kitten with dawn soap, which you can use before it is 12 weeks. An easy way to do this is to wrap your kitten in a towel (to protect yourself and the kitten) and submerge it (except for the head). Most of the fleas will drown, then use the soap to wash your kitten.

What age can you give a kitten a bath?

You can start giving a kitten a bath once they are at least 8 weeks old. Before that age, kittens are usually not able to regulate their body temperature effectively and may get chilled during bathing. Always use a mild kitten-specific shampoo and make sure to dry them thoroughly after the bath to prevent them from getting cold.

I used sergeants gold flea med on cat 3 days ago Can I apply frontline today as he's still scratching He's about 8 yrs old and pretty healthy but miserable from fleas.?

You should not apply a second medication to close to the time you apply the first one. Your cat may do better if you bathe him to get rid of most of the flea burden. If he is too miserable, give your vet a call. Too many fleas can cause a cat to become anemic.
