We have 9 healthy Beagle puppies.The problem is they are getting bit by fleas.I'm sure they are coming from the mother.What can I treat the mother and them with?They are 6 days old.

Brian, until Doc S and get back to you on this, you can start by washing mom down with some dishwashing detergetn, Joy, Dawn, etc and the pups. Then to keep fleas off, temporarily you could spray them down with skin so soft. (Avon product) just not on the teats.
Best of luck

After washing, move them to a new box and area.
Then, treat the old area and box for fleas. No need washing, then putting them back in the same flea nest...
