How can I safely get rid of larvae on her face?
Answers:
Kittens can safely be treated for fleas at your vet's office. It's about 15.00 for a squirt behind the neck.
If you want to do it yourself? Get a washcloth and wash your kittens face and manually pick off the fleas one by one. Be sure to 'pop' their bodies between your fingernails or drop them into a small glass of rubbing alcohol -- never think flushing a live flea is a guaranteed thing.
Bathe your kitten. You don't say how old. If it's under two weeks old - get a flea comb and gently comb out the fleas.
If the kitten is healthy and can withstand a bath and is over two weeks old, rescue groups use original DAWN dishwashing liquid.
Rub the liquid onto the affected area (obviously be careful on the face) and the fleas can not move due to the slickness of the soap and THEN you comb them out or pick them off the kitten.
Around the eye area someone with short fingernails can gently scrape that area and manually remove the fleas because generally that's where the fleas run to.
Start at the HEAD of the kitten (behind eyes and mouth) and work your way down with the Dawn Dishwashing liquid.
We do this over a sink with warm water. Once the kitten is soaped up, place it under the running faucet and let the water do the work for you -- the fleas have no way of holding onto the hair and they slide out.
Don't forget to examine the belly area and the anus area under the tail - and don't forget the tail. With a highly infested kitten (one you are pulling over 50-75 fleas off of) it might take more than one soaping.)
