Normal body temperature for a ferret is between 100 and 104 F.  A
temperature of 103 is not that unusual.  I'm surprised that the vet would
prescribe a "strong antibiotic" in that case unless there were some other
observations.  I don't want to second guess your vet - I'm not one, and
haven't even seen Ona, but is you vet ferret knowledgeable?  Maybe a second
opinion might be in order.
