When it comes to animals that are deeply loved by people and widely live in people’s homes, I think many people like me would say besides dogs are kittens. Dogs guard our homes, while kittens accompany us as soulmates.

Kittens belong to the feline family under the phylum Chordata. They generally have a gentle temperament, are kind to people, usually small in size, and have sharp claws. Many families have raised cats and let them sleep and eat with us, almost inseparable, suitable for all kinds of people. But there is one problem that has always troubled people: kittens easily get fleas, and since kittens have close contact with humans, what should we do at this time?

Fleas on kittens not only pose a threat to humans but also harm the kittens themselves. Fleas can cause kittens’ skin allergies and affect their health. In severe cases, fleas can make kittens irritable because the fleas make them uncomfortable, causing them to scratch themselves. Generally, it is not recommended to bathe kittens directly at this time. It is advised to buy some non-irritating medicines to help kittens remove fleas.

For owners, fleas on kittens can also bring hygiene trouble. If you sleep together, fleas can spread to the owner. At this time, it is usually suggested to reduce contact with the kitten and even while treating the fleas, keep the kitten’s hygiene clean.

Then, usually, we can use a special flea comb to help the kitten remove fleas. If you want better effects, you can apply a layer of flea powder or conditioner on the comb to assist the kitten. Actually, the reason kittens get fleas has a lot to do with the hygiene of the surrounding environment. Therefore, owners should always pay attention to home hygiene and regularly do a thorough cleaning to reduce the chance of kittens getting fleas.
