You can use puppy /kitten Revolution but probably will need to get it from a vet office. Don't use Frontline or ANYTHING off the shelves of a pet store.

Frontline and many other anti-parasitics will kill a rabbit

The generic name for Revolution is selamectin and the correct dosage is on medi-rabbit under selamectin
I also included a medi-rabbit article

Revolution/selamectin is quite safe if used correctly. We use it all the time at our shelter. Fleas should be dead within 24 hrs; we seldom need a repeat in 30 days

you also need to clean and disinfect the rabbit's cage and living area...

There is also kitten Advantage that you can use on your rabbits. It is the kitten dosage. I believe the dosage goes by weight of the animal.

Yes, frontline is very dangerous for rabbits. It messes with their nerves and is fatal. Advantage and revolution are the only safe flea medicines that are safe for rabbits.
