Sounds like pesticide poison! NEVER use stuff like flea baths or collars, only vet approved treatments. RUSH HIM TO THE VET NOW! He may die on the way! Pesticides are toxic and kill animals! Some animals are more sensive to these products!!

the flea soap or shampoo may have some kind of chemical that upsets his body system and the water may be too cold. did you read the instruction on the bottle or soap container it should also explain at what age you can use the flea soap or shampoo on kittens.

your better off using a flea comb for now until he gets older.

The water and the smell generally upsets cats, but the shaking and bad balance could either indicate shock, or perhaps water is getting into his ears and causing an ear infection.

---

He's in shock!

---

either your cat feels good because he is not itchy any more or it is cause cats hate water

---

You have an emergency on your hands. I hope by the time you see this you are on your way to either your vet or an emergency vet.

Unfortunatly , flea products are often not safe for cats,

First symptoms are exactly what you describe, quiet, balance is bad, shakey.

Please get to a vet.

maybe, he's cold, and quite upset after his bath. sometimes when cats get wet, they don't like the feeling and will walk and try to keep there paws from hitting the ground..because it's uncomfortable having wet feet. lol they usually like to be alone after such an event to groom themselves
