Yea I would wait until she is a little bit bigger. I have a 1 1/2 yr old who weighs about 5 1/2lbs. I started puttin frontline plus on him when he turned a year old since yorkies are small. I use all of it now on him but when I first started..i used only like 1/2 then went up to 3/4 and now he gets the whole dose. Until you decide to use the frontline..a great shampoo is bioguard. It is a gentle shampoo and can be used for dogs and cats of all ages plus if you use it with your frontline..it wont wash it off! But if your baby gets a good number of fleas...a quick fix is wash her in plain ole original dawn and use a good oatmeal conditioner to keep from it drying her coat and skin out!
