Hi Eleanor;
Good to hear from you.. guess I'll post to the FML again what I have
found out.. Seems I'm not the only rescue to have gotten this message.
It is definitely a scam, but really, I figured it was when I read it.
If you're a member of other groups feel free to cross post. And I'm
leaving the links you sent to me for others to have as well.
Also I posted the other day about a failed rescue. A little girl who
died just a second before I was able to subQ her. She too was so flea
infested that her pads where white and her gums too were white - in fact
the entire inside of her mouth was white.
Adams flea spray, frontline, advantage, or revolution all give
protection. You can buy the large dog advantage and put 3-4 drops on
each ferret - it'll treat 6-8 easily.. and they will be protected for
a month. After the initial treatment you don't have to treat each and
every ferret every month... just treating 1/2 of them protects them all -
well it does here. With these simple remedies I just don't understand
why anyone has a ferret with fleas. I remember before the remedies, back
when we dipped our dogs each week how they would cry and cry as they
scratched themselves. When I discovered dursban (now outlawed) for the
yard then program, then advantage I can not tell you the joy and relief I
felt because my babies no longer had to live with these attacks.
I can't believe that ferret people would do this. To rationalize this I
have to believe it is not ferret people or true animal people who do
this, but those who say "aw how cute" and impulse buy a kit. Beyond that
I guess I'd better shut up before I get wound up ...
