Allison asked about flea treatments.  We have used Advantage for small cats
and kittens for several years now with no ill results.  I put one drop (not
the entire tube) on the ferrets shoulder blads, and the fleas dissappear.
It is an off-label use, but so aren't many of the medications we use for
our ferrets.  Talk to your vet about Advantage.
