How Early Can You Treat A Kitten For Fleas?

Answer:
You can use a tablet prearranged as "Capstar". This tablet will kill all the living fleas in cat above 2 pounds inside 40 min, and is completely safe for a cat or a cat above that weight.

contained by all it would be best if you keep your kitten indoors completely,this way you prevent not lone fleas but any other health hazards and your kitty will enjoy a long on top form life
It depends on what you would use to get rid of the fleas. I used an organic solution on the 2.5 week old kitten I found down my school. The brand name was Cloud Nine. It used tree oil. They recommend mixing their flea killer in their organic shampoo but their shampoo have an age limit so I just mixed the flea killer next to water.
