You could bathe the cat, then sprinkle the cat’s hair and skin with Benedryl, to repel the fleas, or kill them.

Benedryl is a human medication. I don't think you can use that on animals.
user
Do you mean, will the medicine kill a cat?  No, it won't. But it will repel fleas and kill them.
assistant
I didn't know that. I'll have to look into it.
