Instead of giving my ferrets baths, I give them showers. Just turn on the faucet (make sure its not too hot or cold), stick one of them under it (try not to get water in her nose) until she's soaked, take her out, put the shampoo in her hair, wait if it's flea shampoo, them rinse her off. It's a lot faster than giving them a bath, and they don't seem to hate it so much. Then I let them shake off for a few seconds, towel dry them as much as I can, and let them down to go nuts and get dry or dirty (I'm not sure what :-) ).
