If a ferret is having those kinds of problems it is best to take them to the vet. Treating it as you are is good, but you need to find out why it keeps happening. Could be a gastrointestinal infection that requires medication like hb pilori. I had a ferret who was prone to them all the time so it was worth having the vet check her out.

[Rather than Helicobacter pylori which
humans get, ferrets instead get H. mustelae.
It was from ferret Helicobacter mustelae studies
by James Fox of the Comparative Med at MIT
and others that much of today's information
about the pylori species were first suggested.
Ferrets greatly changed human medicine for
ulcers in that way.
