Hey guys i adopted a kitten a couple of days ago
we were told specifically he had been flead and wormed
well after several hours he started itching quite a lot
then he started itching once an hour
and then once every ten/15 min
i combed his fur and did not see any sign of fleas/flea dirt
this morning i high temperature hot washed all bedding and clothing it may have come into contact with
our floor is laminated but i still flea sprayed it and our matress
so really i did a total cleanout
i also applied frontline drop on behind the skin on the nape
this was about 4 hours ago
i didnt see any sign of fleas even jumping off or dead fleas or any fleas at all
however, 4 hours later the kitten is still itching like once every 5 or 10 min
what should i do
the lady i bought him off did say he used to have a dry skin condition, i asked him to elaborate on it but she isnt responding to texts
also with regards to him being wormed, he is continiuously flatulating since we bought him, with random wind breaks all the time even when not using the toilet
what is wrong with people who breed these kittens and lie !!!
i know vet may be the best solution if it continues but to be honest i just spent about 20 pounds today on the worming and fleaing material alone!!!
so i definatly want to wait before shelling out another 30 plus quid just for a vet appointment
