If you hold him up so his belly is facing you . . .or stand him up on a counter, gently blow on his hair on his belly . . .or you can lift him up from behind with his front paws on the countertop and look underneath his tail and down his back legs . . .fleas generate to the warmer areas of the body. If you suspect fleas, you can always give him a bath with dawn liquid soap, that kills fleas fast. Also, you should wash any bedding or stuffed toys and if you have carpeting, it'll also have to be treated.
When you use the flea meds, you can use half of the tube. I split the tube between my two because they weigh 5 1/4 pounds and 6 1/2 pounds.
