i was advised to bath mine together, because they will be scared they sometimes reform their bond.

If you do this, make sure you dry them properly and dont leave them in a draught.

That's great advise, do they live indoors?

If they have inflicted wounds on one another the rule is to separate. They may get on after their bath only to start on one another again once back in their cage/hutch.
Good Luck. If you do have to separate put a mesh divide between them so they can still interact with one another but not physically hurt one another.
