Ferrets can and do have reactions to IMRAB-3 rabies vaccine, though
it's not as common as a reaction to the distemper vaccine.

If you've already gotten their distemper shots and had a full exam, I
don't think you should feel the guilty about going to a cheaper vet
for the rabies vaccinations, as long as they use the proper vaccine
and can handle a reaction if it occurs.
