One of the best ways I've found is to use vinegar and a flea comb. You need to put this in a spray bottle and spray it on the cat. Make a bowl of vinegar and comb the cat. Clean the comb in the bowl to get the fleas off the comb. This will also kill the fleas too. The cat is very young and a lot of flea products in the market are harsh and they aren't so good for the cat. I use vinegar to kill the fleas on my animals all the time and it really keeps them off.
I had my Dex for almost 5 yrs before I had to deal with fleas with him. I had gotten him off Kijiji when he was 2 he may have had fleas before I got him I'm not sure, but we very quickly realized he was allergic to freaking fleas and A friend told me about Capstar! OMG amazing, its a pill you crush up and put in a bit of tuna or wet food. And it starts working in an hr it says up to 90% of live fleas will be killed.
Diluted Dawn soap and a flea comb.
Use the regular white vinegar, fleas and ants hate the smell. put part vinegar and water in a spray bottle, spray your kitten be VERY careful around the mouth and eyes , use a large comb and gently comb thru the fur rinsing off the comb in a separate bowl of water.
Hopefully your 2 month old will let you give him/her a bath as a bath is not a natural thing to them - cats do not usually like to have even a few drops of water on them.
it would be best to not have to bathe or put anything wet on the young kitten if nothing else because they don't care for it
to treat the bedding areas you can put lavender and cedar chip sachets since fleas hate these scents.
lemon or vinegar spray works well too, on your pet or on bedding.
Borax is great for killing fleas but should never be put directly on your cat or areas where he might be exposed. If it could be put in an area where fleas enter the domain but not necesarily where your cat hangs out that woudl be great.
to apply on your cat, simple table salt will dehydrate and kill the fleas. It should be safe to spread especially in its belly area where fleas are active. Ssalt can also be sprinkled liberally in the bedding areas and high traffic areas
