You cannot give the cat that medication. Most vets office can trim nails with out doing anything and may have a carrier for you. Depending on your area, there may be a mobile vet or groomer than can come to you to do this for you. I would start with contacting a vet's office or local groomer and they can assist you or provide you with someone in town that can if needed.

1. You don't need to do anything about the litter box 2. You can give them a Capstar and then the next day you can apply a topical flea medication like Advantage II. 3. You need to treat all animals in the house with a flea medication 4. You need to treat the house. I recommend Knockout Spray ES (see below) 5. You do not need to bathe the cats. It is actually better if you don't. 6. If you have a yard, I would treat the yard with Advantage Yard Spray (see below) 7. Monitor the cats for tapeworms. Cats get tapeworms by ingesting infected fleas. It may be a few weeks before you see them, if you are going to see them.

You can use this wound spray gel, 3-4 times per day on the affected area. If she starts to act sick at any time (not eating, very lethargic, vomiting, etc) then she needs to see a vet. https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/vetericyn-cat-wound-and-skin-hydrogel

Be very careful buying online, there are a lot of counterfeit products out there! Best thing to do for Kitty is take him into a vet in the morning to get Revolution (treats fleas and ear mites) and Panacur for the worms.
