Is Revolution safe for newborn kittens and their nursing mom?

Question

my vet told me that it's ok to give newly born kittens (3 days old) and their mom revolution ampoule to treat their flea problem. he told me that using two drops on each of them is safe. I am worried that this is dangerous for them and i didn't do it. please advice me on the best way to cure their flea problem safely. Pet's info: Cat | Persian | Female | unspayed | 1 year and 6 months old

You can treat the mom with revolution but there are no products labeled for kittens until they are 4 weeks old. I would not place the revolution on 3 day old kittens. all you can safely do for them is bath them in dish soap or baby shampoo and pick them off the babies. Keep the environment clean and treated and by treating the mom, then you can control the problem until they are old enough to have their own medicine
