I would not use Ivermectin. It is an extremely potent medicine. We have used it off label for mange for our fox squirrels. We got the ivermectin from our vet for the squirrels with mange. My vet gave me a product called Tresaderm for our ferrets mites.

Tresaderm is often used if the mite infection
led to a secondary infection in the ear]
