Hey everyone, long time no post i know lol
anyway, Cuddles and Nippers have lice again! One year later and I'm back where i was when they were babies :0

I havent a clue what to do. What do you suggest?

Ive called local pet shops and they have no shampoos in. I really wanna get them bathed now! But what can i use? I cant stand watching them scratch again... please help x
 
Pets at home sell johnsons small animal insecticidal shampoo one treatment and mine was clear, i did however wash them again 7 days later to be sure all the eggs were killed. Gorgeous guineas also do one lice n easy, i've not used that one myself but heard good stuff about it (used other gorgeous guineas stuff though and its good stuff) and quick turn around on delivery.
 
Hiya old pal! To determine what kind of lice they have you will need to take them to the vet as for some they need injections. Poor little ones. I remember how long they had it for last time.
 
Hi everyone. Thanks for replying. I went to southern aquatics and lady have me shamppo and powder. Ive bathed them tonight, cleaned hutch and gone through with nit comb. Also blow dried them, they were good as gold! Cant see any live ones now, but I'm going to book thhem in vets anyway as need nails cutting. They can also b checked over then. Ill shampoo again next sun. I found some live ones on cuddles head so got them with tweezers, I'm not sure how to kill them as cant shampoo their heads? Hence tweezers. Theyre now happy with a slice of melon x
