I had 2 stray kittens show up at my home recently. Same situation, had fleas, stopped eating after the initial gorging of food because they were also starving. I took to the vet 2 days later, treated for fleas. The vet told me that fleas on a kitten can cause them to become really sick and not eat. He also told me that people don't realize how much blood is taken by the fleas and this is the reason that they become sick. The vet can also do test to check for a common intestial problem, but only they will be able to do this. Within 24 hours, my kittens are eating again. Good Luck!
