Here is a recent post that should help. My vet has also used the 4.7 mg implant.

The only approved and proven deslorelin for ferrets is:-
Suprelorin 4.7 mg for dogs (as tested by the prime developer for ferrets, Dr Shoemaker)
This is a 12 month (nominal) implant (may last 8-24 months)
I have two ferrets with this implant, Sugar on her seond implant at 15 months and Suki at 3 months, both with complete remission of symptoms.
