What about mites?

I looked for any information on ear infections, but I couldn't
find anything. Only one ear on my ferret seems to be bothering
her. It looks kind of red with a yellowish tint. She does have
some wax inside, but I assume that's normal. It also seems very
sensitive because she will shake her head or jerk away from me
when I try to look at it (She is normally good about me checking
her ears.) She will also lay down and swipe her paws from the
back of her head to her nose going over her ears. I have noticed
her doing this a little more often lately, than what I normally
see. If anyone has information on what I should look for, or what
symptoms of an ear infection are, I would really appreciate it.
Thank you.
