He should be fine, but you can't guaranty he won't get fleas. keep an eye on him, it's usually easy to spot fleas on newborns. from the age of 2 days Frontline spray can be used for fleas in case you find any.

You can get Frontline spray to use on Sterling. It's safe for kittens as young as two days of age. Then take him into the vet for a health check. The vet can determine his age, and can discuss flea treatment programs for him. Best of luck.
