I don't believe it. This is a product for dogs. Bayer's website says this about Advantix use in cats...
"Due to their unique physiology and inability to metabolize certain compounds, this product must not be used on cats. If applied to a cat, or ingested by a cat, contact your veterinarian immediately."
Sounds like a pretty serious warning. Obviously, cats are not ferrets, but this doesn't sound like something I would use on a ferret.
