Here's an update on what i learned about Delilah's hair loss. Apparently it was due to some allergy she has to something. we have not figured out what yet though. Our vet suggested thinking about getting an air purifyer since me and my husband are both smokers. (i know, nasty habit, and i have tried quitting) So, i think we are going to try to save up a little extra cash here and there, and maybe by Christmas we can have enough for the purifyer. My vet gave Delilah a shot of Cortizone, to help with her itching. And she finally got a full nights sleep last night, without waking up and digging. So, if anyone out there has a ferret that is just itching like crazy, and you cant figure out why... ask your vet about allergies. That could be the problem. I have seen Delilah dig ONE time since the vet visit, and she seems much happier now.
