While not a dandruff shampoo per se we've had very good results with
Kenic Ferret Gleem. There is a matching conditioner as well. We
don't use the conditioner because their coats come out beautiful and
soft without it and because our ferrets hate water so we don't want to
prolong their discomfort.

Those are great questions. A vet checkup certainly wouldn't hurt.

All the best,
