Please have your guinea pig vet checked for mange mites or a fungal infection. They require different treatment. The location is more typical for mange mages, but the description fits more a fungal diagnosis.
Do not home treat on spec with low dosed broad spectrum shop products that will do more harm than good in an acute outbreak.

As we have got members and enquiries from all over the world, you can help us to tailor any advice and recommendations to what is available and relevant for where you are by adding your country, state/province or UK county to your details. Click on your username on the top, then go to personal details and scroll down to location. This allows us to consider available brands, climate/current weather, vet and rescue access etc. instead of keeping our advice as general as possible.
