There are a couple of things to try. The most common treatment is an anti-fungal cream containing miconazole or thiabendazole. If the kitten is long-haired, you may have to shave the affected area. For a severe case, you may need to try a lime sulfur dip.

Because ringworm is contagious to humans, you need to treat the kitten. Most vets will prescribe an ivermectin treatment or perhaps an antifungal shampoo.

You will need to give it medicine in order to get rid of the ringworm. Some major retailers carry some anit-fungal treatments in the pet section that you can use.
