Cotton regarding bathing the kittens.

Don’t be afraid to bathe them make sure the water is comfortably warm not too cold or hot. Put a little bit of water in the top of their heads above their eyes and that sort of calms them down and Immobilizes them.

Do not not not use a strong flea product on them

you can look online for some natural flea killers I use apple cider vinegar and water a little bit of essential oil and a couple drops of dawn to emulsify everything

letting them soak is good and if you have a flea comb while they’re in the water run it through you may have to repeat this several times I do a little kittens sometimes twice a day but they have to dry in a warm spot

an air-conditioned home might be a little too cold for them your back porch would probably be perfect until they dry up

If I were closer I’d be over in a heartbeat to help you and show you how to do it for the little ones they’re really cute in the water but they look so funny with all their fur down

Have Sean take some pictures I think they’d be cute

Darn I saw this too late. I looked up how to bathe a kitten on the kitten lady’s site. Pretty much exactly what you said. But I didn’t see a single flea running around. Winter has a thin layer of white fur but blizzard has pretty much none. So anyway both of them dried really fast. I put them on a heating blanket.

I’m turning the AC off in a little bathroom, since those babies are missing fur they probably are colder than even most kittens.
