First, weigh your kitten. Seriously, use a kitchen scale if you have to. You need to give exactly the right amount: about 1.5 sprays per pound of body weight. That’s it.
Then, spray a little onto your hand, and rub it gently into the kitten’s fur. Focus on the back of the neck, the shoulders, and the base of the tail. Avoid the face unless you want a very angry, very wet cat.

One pro tip: do it when the kitten is sleepy. A drowsy kitten is a compliant kitten. It’s like changing a diaper on a calm baby—way easier than a hyper one.
But Wait—Is It Also Cool for Mom?
Absolutely! If you have a mama cat and her litter, you can spray her too. She’ll groom the kittens, which actually helps spread the spray around. It’s like a shared spa day, but with flea-fighting powers.
Just don’t overdo it. One spray session for everyone is plenty. You don’t want to turn your home into a chemical fog—just a gentle, effective mist.
