To: ferrethealth@yahoogroups.com

Hi Andrea,

I had this same condition with one of mine and I used the spray-on
ferret shampoo on her tail that I massaged in. The black heads
slowly disappeared and in a few weeks her hair regrew on her tail.
Didn't happen overnight -it was a good 2 weeks before I noticed ANY
change and that was with daily applications of the spray-on ferret
shampoo. Took about 4-6 weeks for the hair to regrow.

You may want to try the shampoo rather than the Stridex pads. The
shampoo I used was Quick & Clean instant shampoo - tearless - no
rinse bath for ferrets by Super Pet.
