I've read the parasites file on the FHL site, as well as done several
searches, etc. But I"ve seen everything from people recommending .1ml of
Advantage on a ferret for fleas to the whole tube of .4ml. I've seen many posts that
say .2ml per ferret is enough. So which dose is most commonly recommended
now? I have a mild problem with fleas that has begun, and I"m sitting here
looking at my packages of cat doses of Advantage and I"m so confused. I have to
tell you, I'm nervous about putting a whole tube of Advantage on my 1 1/2 pound
tiny girl ferret when the package says its for cats 9lbs and under. Am I
just being silly or no?
I'd really like someone to clarify this for me. The more information and
opinions the better so that I can make an informed choice here.
