I was holding my 10 week old kitten today and noticed this really really tiny black thing crawling deep under all his fur on his skin. Are these fleas?
Also, does this mean the other two (11yrs and 8 months) will have fleas too? :(

How Fleas Look Like

Sounds like fleas...bathe them all in DAWN DISH DETERGENT, since the youngest is 10 weeks, you cannot use a flea shampoo yet. Make sure you spray or use flea carpet powder in your home for fleas, wash all the bedding etc.....Vaccuum really well, and immediately throw the bag away from the vaccuum because fleas can live inside the bag. Two days after you bathe them, go to the vet and purchase a topical flea preventative, Revolution is great, or you can try frontline. These must be applied once a month, every month for flea prevention.

Yes, your cat has fleas. Chances are the other cats have them too. Get a flea collar for all of them, and either spray them with flea spray for give them a bath every so often.

fleas can come inside your home from the shoes of anyone. It does sound like fleas. If you can, take one of your cats to the vet and see what he says.

what do they appear to be? in case your cat is an indoor cat its conceivable you've fleas on your position, so that you would shop treating your cat, yet he will shop catching them back out of your position. so that you may want to get a string kin spray. id attempt your interior of reach vets for that. yet ensure you try slightly on the back of your settee first basically incase it reacts! id deffinately reccomend occurring your vets for the spray, shop ones juast aint as strong. also see in the journey that they promote recommend, its a pipette of oinment that is going on the back of the neck, it treats fleas worms ticks and mites, so your cat might want to be lined for all those issues incase it isnt fleas, its extreme priced stuff yet extremely extremely strong, i apply it to my lot!

They are small brownish black looking things and you probably saw a flea.
