Fellow FMLer's Once again I ask for friendly advice (and many thanks to all who in the past harkened to my pleas for help!) I took in 3 ferrets from King County Animal Rescue yesterday (Western WA). All 3 had fleas! Two of the fuzzies had what I would call "a normal amount of fleas" for an animal that had been at a county shelter for one week. But the third ferret - I have NEVER seen so many fleas on one animal! I treated him with Marshall's flea/tick/lice foam, then went to bathe him. The fleas were so many that they literally made a stampede for his face. I had never seen anything like this. His eyes, nose, and mouth were covered (they were hanging off his whiskers!) Poor little thing! He had been reported to be a little nippy - I guess so, with all those fleas! I treated him with the Marshall's product and with Flea Halt! for ferrets - is there anything else (besides persistance) that I can do? I doubt there is a 'flea dip' for ferrets like we used for dogs or cats. I even used a nit comb to pull out those nasty buggers! Any advice or experience would be helpful! [Posted in FML issue 2796]
