Sevin dust treatment
Shampoo your cat with a mild flea shampoo that is safe for cats. Your veterinarian or pet store staff can advise you on the right product to use. Leave the shampoo on the cat for at least five minutes before thoroughly rinsing.
Dry your cat thoroughly. Comb through your cat's fur with a small-tooth flea comb to extract any fleas.
Wear rubber gloves to dust a small amount of Sevin dust in your hands and massage it well into the coat of your cat. Be cautious around the cat's eyes, nose and mouth.
Treat the home and yard with the Sevin dust according to label instructions once every week until the flea infestation is over.
Repeat with shampoo and a flea comb to be sure no more fleas are on your cat.
