   get you some permerhtin 10% and mix according to the label  dip the gyp in it and get a rag and soak it , then ring it out and wipe down the pups .  pull them out of where ever they are and remove all bedding and spray the area with the left over dip   let it dry and put them back in  .

You can wash all dogs one at a time with dawn dish and as you get one washed move it to a new area with new bedding and house. Usually a area that has fleas is infested and probably would be pointless to wash them and put back in the same area. And you can probably give the momma dog a comfort is pill and everything be alright and that would keep the fleas down a good bit also off the pups

Dawn dish soap is best to use. Soap them up good and wait a few minutes the fleas will die, safe and effective for their age.

   yep dawn dish soap will kill the fleas but it won't keep them off . !!!!!!!!   you gonna have to spray the area and wipe the pups down with something or put the gyp on the pills or frontline down the back   . me I just use permethrerin 10% it's  cheap , safe and effective  .

I've used baby shampoo on pups just in case, it kills fleas also
