The safest flea shampoo for a cat is actually Dawn dish soap or baby shampoo. It is very mild and gentle and does well for killing fleas. After a bath you can try frontline or advantage topical if old enough as those do no require prescriptions

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! I suggest you try a product called Bravecto which is topical and there is no need to bathe afterwards and it is only applied every 3 months so it would be very convenient for you. Good luck!
