The 'F' word!!!! Freaking out!!

[PlaydoughBarbershop]

My husband has just rang me as he was leaving for work to say he has seen fleas on our 4 month old kitten. I am stuck in work and mortified/devastated. Need to get home and start the decontamination process and strip all bed etc. Pleas can someone give me some advice as a first time cat owner. She is an indoor cat and I even had the flea treatment to administer this week but am now completely out of my comfort zone. Cat seems perfectly fine in herself. Thanks in advance

Good the fleas are being sorted and remember to keep on top of it.
Regarding spaying you could try a different vet? I was sorting papers earlier and happened to read the blurb from our vets (given when we got our young lad) and looks like they are strong advocates of neutering younger so much so they charge less for under 6 months nor sure how common that is??? Not an issue for us as present and previous cats were already done.
Definitely be ultra careful about keeping windows and doors shut so she doesn't escape.

Have had her on my knee and used a nit comb. Found about 8 but can't see anymore. Surprised she let me do it as she normally only sits still for a few seconds when I brush her. Think we may be ok. Just need to calm myself down about the eggs that may or may not be bloody everywhere according to Google. Thank you so much everyone. And will ask/beg the vets again and see if they are at all flexible about their 6 month rule. Will still keep her as a house cat as we live in countryside with foxes and one long main road, but I know it can take just one sneaky escape for her to get caught

One of my cats was neutered at 6 months, but my rescue was neutered at 10 weeks. The rescue do it when the kittens reach a certain weight.
