Is Salt Flea Treatment Safe For Ferrets? |
|
|
Is the salt treatment safe for killing fleas with a ferret in the house? Is there anything I can bathe him in (maybe Dawn Dish soap) to kill the fleas on him right away?

RE: Is Salt Flea Treatment Safe For Ferrets?
Actually, any type of soap will kill the adult fleas. I have a cat with VERY sensitive skin, and I have found that I can use regular shampoo (for people) on him. I usually use Suave and then use conditioner on him, too. You just have to make VERY sure that you get ALL the shampoo off their skin.

I had ferrets for twelve years. Two were rescues who came to me with fleas. They do make a flea shampoo just for ferrets which I highly recommend. Ferrets tend to be itchy even without fleas, so it must be awful for them with fleas. But you must be sure you are not harboring fleas elsewhere in the house or they will just get them again.
