We found this sweet baby right in front of our apartment complex. He cried and we went downstairs and saw him. He's one month old, teeth are there, he can pee and poop on his own. But, he has TONS of fleas. Our vet, said that we can't get rid of them yet, but why not? It's bothering him...

We bought good dry food and we are soaking it in water. I did give him water with a syringe, because he doesn't know how to drink yet.

How do get rid of the fleas? Should we wait?
