Misty,
 
It seems a nasty thing to do, but perhaps you could tell your aunt that
all of the ferrets are killers and you could "reluctantly" take them off
her hands for her?  Maybe the other three got the taste of blood from the
first one's fur and now they are bloodthirsty, too....
 
I hate to spread misinformation like this - there is enough out there
already - but your aunt obviously isn't listening to reason and *good*
information.  Perhaps this is enough to help you get those poor guys and
give them a better home.
