I might add, that if you decide to use a flea comb on them, have a pot of boiling water or a dish of some solvent ready, such as rubbing alcohol , to kill the fleas that may come up on the comb.
Soapy water works, too. The soap decrease the surface tension of the water, preventing the fleas from being able to simply float on top and skip away! This is good for kitties that don't like to be combed, as having dangerous boiling water or solvents around a flying cat might not be a good idea.
