We always used to put Sevin powder on our cats when they had fleas. We'd put it on the carpeting, too, leave it overnight, then vacuum it the next day.
A friend of mine who owns a winery puts Sevin on the barn cats, too, when they get fleas.
I'll have to have a look for it. The main thing is getting something that wouldn't harm the girl. She's only eleven weeks, and is TINY for her age due to a bad previous home. (They didn't realize that kittens should get different food from grown cats, so poor Teacake is very undersized and sickly for her age.) All of the powders that I've looked at say not to use on a kitten under 12 weeks, and I am not sure how this applies to Tea. I'm taking her to the vet on monday, though, so I'll be sure to ask him what I should use.

It's inexpensive & works.
