I was told by a vet that they use Advantage on young kittens, but I can't remember what she said was the age. 8 weeks is definitely safe and I'm pretty sure that some vets would go even lower. It's one of those things where "some vets think A/some think B." All of my foster kittens had Advantage before they came to me and they were 3 months by that time (but teeny tiny- one didn't weigh 2 lbs yet). But I was told Advantage is incredibly safe and I have never had a problem with it-- only positive results. It can be used on really young kittens, you just have to tweak the dosage. There are some people that know the dosing amounts-- maybe on this list? I have an email about it somewhere I could maybe dig out and I can always ask the adoption agency people I work with, as I usually just refer to them when I need a dosage based on weight. -Caroline

Don't worry I don't use over the counter stuff. These are four and half weeks old now. Thanks!
