You can wash them in warm water and a very small amount of liquid dish soap. Use a fine toothed comb to remove dead or dying fleas. Dry the kittens thoroughly to prevent chill. Do not use any flea medications unless the label states it ​is safe for use in kittens. If the mother is around, you can use Frontline or​ Frontline Spray on her. This will not harm the kittens.
