I forget if frontline is the bath stuff or the spot on stuff.  When I got
my new baby she brought fleas into the house and I used farnam's biospot
for ferrets on both of mine and it seems to have worked great.  Melissa
 
About dumpers.  When I was looking for a friend for my lonely Kiki I
would have been happy to get an email from someone who was looking
for a ferret friendly/loving home.  Many people don't have the
time.money/resources to take on one more, but there are still some people
out there that might be more than happy to invite one more bundle of
fuzzy joy into their home.  I agree that no one should try to post a
ferret for sale.  If you buy it and don't like it (or want to dump/get
rid of it) for any reason you need to cut your financial losses and just
be happy if you can find a good loving home for it.  And if you
relinquish it to a shelter you should feel obligated to help out with
the cost of it's care.
