I have applied mouthwash to cats with fleas and mange. If they lick it it will not hurt them. I would avoid using stronger antiseptics like rubbing alcohol, peroxide, iodine, and Mercurochrome. Turpentine is a maybe. I have also used petroleum jelly for bleeding sores, although it has no antiseptic quality. The cat's natural instinct is to lick their wounds, and it must be an antiseptic which will not harm them if taken internally.
