I know this has probably been asked 100 times or more but what do youlot use to remove fleas from your ferrets enclosure?.

Mate first treat ferret with frontline or spot on, I prefer Frontline myself. Then clean out every think from hutch bedding etc, i would burn the bedding myself.

I use a wallpaper steam wallpaper stripper without the plate just the hose to clean corners of the hutch, but boiling water or a blow lamp as another lad suggested in post on cleaning hutch. Read pinned post by Rake About Ticks. atb

Aye i got a couple of kits in a bucket with a wire lid dropped off and they brought a few friends along but anything new goes into quarantine so mine didnt catch them

The lucky part is these are my only ferrets so I don't have to worry about it spreading .just really annoying as they have been In the kitchen.

Don't worry mate, every now and again you get them. On one perm the rabbits are loaded with fleas and there is another where we get ticks. Just treat the ferrets with Frontline ever three months no probs. atb.
