My favorite treatment is to put a cat tube of Revolution on the back of
each ferrets neck every two weeks for three doses then return to once a
month but with 8 ferrets that is going to get expensive. You can have
your vet mix ivermectin 1/10 with propylene glycol and you can put
0.4mg/kg divided between the two ears. Repeat in one week. Clean the
ears gently before applying and rub the ear to work the solution into
the ear. Wash their bedding in hot water. I am not a vet.
