Great question! You can use Frontline Spray on the kittens. It's safe to use on kittens from two days of age. On Beauty, you can use Revolution or Advantage. Those are spot on treatments that have been tested and proven to be safe on nursing mothers. You will also have to disinfect the environment. Wash their bedding in hot soapy water, and vacuum the furniture and carpet surfaces. You can use a spray to kill fleas in the house, such as Indorex. I hope this helps!
