Subject: Re: [Ferret-Health-list] Acarexx for ear mites

Our (ferret-friendly) vet suggested we use Revolution
for Dogs (20-40kg) on our ferrets - 10 drops for
normal/large sizes and 8 drops for small ferrets.

A friend's ferret had a very bad ear mite problem and
she swears that using Revolution has cleared it up.

I was nervous about using it but so far so good - my
lot haven't had any adverse effects, touch wood!
