Just wondering what everyone uses on their fuzz butts. I like to know my options for those "Oh Crap" moments in life. I currently use Revolution for kittens. Iv'e heard Advantage and Frontline for kittens are okay; any other suggestions? Thanks for all the help!

When you decide on what product you want to use, you can call your vet or the company itself and ask "What is the off label dosage for a ferret weighing X lbs?" (you may have better chance if you can get the Vet to call the company, they are sometimes leery to give that info to the public) Then you can use a syringe (with the needle) to draw out the right dosage in ml, then remove the needle and administer with the plastic syringe. Allows you to use 1 vial on multiple ferrets, and ensure you don't over medicate. That is how we did it with our fuzzies when we did give flea/tick prevention. Haven't done Flea/tick prevention in 2 years or so. Don't remember the exact dose but we used revolution.
