Can anyone help me find something I can treat my guinea pigs with. I have quite a large number, including pregnant sows and young babies (3 weeks)
I initially took my one poorly pig to the vet and he diagnosed mites. He treated her with xeno 45? and her companion.
He has since told me I need to treat every pig I have as it will spread? Have heard conflictiong stories on this.
Now I have just found lice ( well what I think is lice! Small white/yellow things crawling along the hair!) on a couple of my young ones. The vet said they cant treat anything with what they have thats under 16 weeks or pregnant and that I should ask in a pet shop! I knew this vet was bad but this is ridiculous. So now it's nearly two weeks down the line, the original poorly pig is recovering well but I cant get any treatment for any of my other pigs!
Does anyone know what or where I could get something for these lice asap? I'm not to concerned about the mites as I haven't had any problems on the other pigs.
Sorry it's a long one!
