If the fleas are this severe, I would contact your veterinarian. There is a prescription topical medication for kittens starting at 6 weeks of age that is very effective. Bathing is also an option….for young kittens I often use Dawn dishwashing soap as it is very mild. Just be sure to not let your kitten get too chilled as some of them can still have issues regulating their temperature and that you rinse him thoroughly. Your veterinarian may also have a shampoo that is appropriate for young kittens. I would still use the comb. You may also want to try to control the kitten’s environment and treat the fleas there as well. Wash all bedding frequently in the hottest water possible and vacuum well and throw away the vacuum bag. You will also want to get medication from your veterinarian for Toby for tapeworms as they can be associated with flea infestation!
