You could try Frontline or Advantage flea control for dogs and puppies. I'm certain they have a puppy formula that works according to type of dog and weight. I've used Frontline for a cat and it works great.

Before you bring a pup home, it should be free of fleas or the fleas will infest the house. If there are fleas in the house, it's a hopeless battle until you get appropriate, safe flea treatment from your veterinarian. Do not waste money on products at the store.
