I am definately allergic to my ferrets. I notice it most when their
shedding and when I used to bathe them. My husband bathes them now and he
doesn t do it very often. You may have seen posts before on bathing...they
don t smell as strong if you don t bathe them frequently.
We have four ferrets and won t get any more because every time we added one
my allergies flared up and 4 is my limit.
I m not optimistic about allergy shots. I am extremely allergic to cats
and other things. I tried the shots, but they didn t work for me.
There are very good prescriptions out there for allergies now. I rarely
have problems with the fuzzies. Mail me privately if you have any more
questions.
