Hi Lucinda,
The recommended dose for ferrets with Revolution
is the 5-15 pound cat size (not the 0-5 pound kitten
size). Not sure what the kilogram sizes are over there
but the regular cat size is what we use over here.
One tube for every ferret, then repeat in 3 weeks!
Some will even require a third dose, but 2 doses will
usually do it.
If you also have cats, rabbits, or dogs then treat them
also. You have to treat every pet to get rid of ear mites.
Wash all of the bedding, towels, hammocks, etc
in the hottest wash cycle. Clean out their cage and room
and all of the litter boxs too. And repeat the cleaning in
3 weeks.
Hope that helps,
Jerry Murray, DVM
