It's me again.

I would like to ask you about under what circumstances I should use fed up with or fed up about something.

In my opinion, they mean exactly the same but I may be wrong.

As an example, I present a sentence:

"Mike's really fed up about it."

Could we say: "Mike's really fed up with it?"

Thank you.

Both your sentences are fine and there is no difference in meaning.

I just want to add that "fed up with" is far more common than "fed up about".
