Frontline spray is safe on kittens from two days old (It gives this on the
literature and I've checked with a vet). I've used it on small kittens of less than a week old with no ill-effect to the kittens. Fleas can kill kittens - they can rapidly reduce them to a severely anaemic state that *can* kill. personally I would not hesitate to use Frontline spray - you only require a tiny amount per kitten - Mum should also be done. Cheers, helen s The thing that concerns me, is, Mum is going to groom those kittens and ingest the Frontline. Frontline may be safe, but I wouldn't want her to do that. I'd still pick and squish. But that's just me. Sherry |

That's what I'm doing(pick and squish) as the vet advised against Frontline
due to the grooming issue...she knew nothing about the rosemary wash. :-(..guess I'll do a google on it...thought as it was a non chemical route it might be good...the little blk male is the bigger of the 2 but the little baby girl is sure a feisty one! she squirms and rabbit kicks ........with little bitty feet :-) to get to the prize nipple... :-) Liz "Sherry " wrote in message ...
