Please, no. The poison in flea collars goes strait to the liver and the kidneys. Rid your house of fleas with dry borax in the carpets. A natural product. Please don't destroy your kitten. Keep it from harm.
Hello, Please DO NOT use a flea collar on your kitten. I have worked for a Veterinarian for over 20 years and they have all said the same thing. There are harmful toxins in the collar that will harm your kitten.
I just had kittens yesterday and I noticed that there's fleas already on them what can I do to get them off the kittens so they don't end up dying? I've googled everything I need to know best solution.
Agreed, no flea collar and even on an adult cat (or dog for that matter)!
Definitely no! I agree with the rest. Talk to your vet before using any flea product on a kitten of any age. Besides, most flea collars are also a safety hazard. They do not release like a break-away collar.
Past 8 weeks old for sure. Wash with like warm Dawn soap to keep the kitten clean and kill the fleas. I also use a fleas comb and drop the love fleas in a bowl of dawn dish soap.
My animals have $75 flea collars that are all natural. Wait till at least 9 months.
Kittens can wear flea collars at 12 weeks. However, they can be life-threatening if not used correctly, do make sure you ask the vet how to use it.
