SG- was unable to email you as you posted anonymously. please feel free
to email me personally, but I feel okay posting my message to you here.

My boyfriend has 4 ferrets and we live in N. CA. He has a vet who has
several ferret clients and they love treating the little guys. Now, they
are not ferret experts, so we do a lot of research and pass along info,
but they're pretty good vets. When he was trying to find a vet for him
he did call one place and they said "We don't treat ferrets! They're
illegal!!" and hung up on him. But you can always call anonymously and
ask- the worst they can do is say no.
As far as vets in S. CA go, try looking at this website:
http://www.ferretsanon.com/
It looks like they're working on a vet directory, but in the meantime, I'd
try emailing some of the people who maintain the website (email addresses
are on the site) to ask them who they use- the organization is based in
S. Cal, so some of them may be your neighbors!
Good luck,
Jaime
