Attempting to introduce ferrets

As I stated previously, we have a new member named Jazmine, her vet check came out clear. We just needed to get some flea stuff for both Munchkin and Jazmine because unfortunately she came from a house of animals. We introduced the two of them before and Jazmine scruffed Munchkin, but then it just became Munchkin crouching down, and acting sloth-like but for the most part just seemed to want to get away. Eventually Jazmine would lose interest. Tonight however, for the 4th introduction I had them together and Jazmine was licking Munchkin and climbing on him, and almost within a second I noticed Munchkin get up and go after her. Jazmine started making loud noises, and they both jumped at each other, but I saw Munchkin have the upper hand as Jazmine was backing up cornering herself. I had to intervene and pulled them apart. I noticed poop after I picked Munchkin up. I believe it was Jazmines because of where it was on Munchkin (it goes EVERYWHERE). I cleaned him up, and went to clean Jazmine up (and the rest of the area) and I noticed she had a small red mark (almost like teeth marks) on her back, I applied some polysporine just in case. I think Munchkin got her. I know it takes time to introduce, and I know the saying of "no blood, no poop, no foul" but as it turns out, the introduction was going to take longer than I presumed. Any extra tips, experiences that you guys had have before? Anyone else experienced it?
