From your message, it sounds like this condition came on relatively
fast.

My money is on the abdomen: the signs point to this (enlarged belly;
change in stool, radiologic signs, etc.). She may have peritonitis or
other inflammatory condition of the bowel. Based on the age and signs
there may still be a partial blockage-- but leave the diagnosis to
experts who have actually examined the patient.

RECOMMEND a SECOND OPINION ASAP with a knowledgable ferret
veterinarian. Do not wait.
