In response to you post.  I can tell you from personal experience that
they FERRETS DO NOT PLAY WELL WITH OTHER.......i.e.reptiles.  Many years
a go when i only had 2 ferrets....(yaaaa ferret math) one day i was at the
humane they had 2 good size Iguanas that they where going to put down that
night.  i made so calls and found some one to take them the next day.  so
i took them home with me that night to spend the night and go to their new
home the next evening.  I had a aquarium for them i set up with a good
heave screen on top.  when i woke up at 3 am to a clatter i couldn't
believe i fond my little 1.8 lb girl Tamon in the aquarium and 2 badly
mangled Iguanas.  she had dug a hole through the screen to get to then.  i
was heart broken.  needless to say i personally would not recommend them in
the same house.

i have found a product and have been using it for 6 months now.  it is far
and above the BEST thing i have ever used for odor control .  it is called
DRY STALL it is mad for horse stalls to keep dry and odor control.  i
stared out mixing it 50 50 with cat litter or when i had wood pellets put
some under the pellets never had a bad smell in the house again.it costs
about $4 a 50 bag and i am now useing it just by its self.  you should be
able to find it at any good tack store.... good luck
