You're welcome. I take the vitamins too. The handwash is brilliant, we use it all the time and it provides a bit of reassurance. If your vet needs to speak to another vet my own local vets prescribed us Nystatin for Nigel and Buzz too and Karen is always happy to discuss things if a vet needs to speak to her. We could also give you details of the vet that the clinic is run alongside, his name is Amir.

Thank you again hun, yeah ive been on iron tablets and antibiotics for a good few months, it seems like everyone's ill in this house atm! :) I've drenched the hutch in d10 and all their toys, but i've just ordered a new hutch for them to be on the safe side which will be arriving next week.

I'll take your vets details just in case, i'll keep you updated on their progress and ill see if i can get an appointment for tomorrow evening after work. The sooner we get them on meds the quicker they'll get back to full health!

Again, thank you helen! (and to all those who've posted, what stars!)

Happy to help. Will pm you my vets details now.
 
Hi Laura, did you manage to get them back to the vets?
 
How are they getting on? x
 
Whoops! Been meaning to reply for yonks....going to upload some pigtures tonight. We took them back to the vets, and they are currently taking itraconazole alongside their gel cream, and its working fantastically! Thank you so much for the suggesiton and advice to take them back.

Harvey's hair is growing back (in wee tufts), and on tabby you cant see the white line anymore, and coby is getting there :)).

We've just got the new hutch, and vetbed today, so I'm chucking all their old wooden items out and starting afresh. I'm going to be using the f10 (once they've got the all clear) twice a month with the new hutch alongside using regular disinfectant.

Thankfully they haven't got any more patches and i think, with the fabulous and wonderful advice from this forum, they're on the mend!
 
Good News, looking forward to seeing the Adventure Piggies again!
 
Am so pleased the vet gave you Itrafungal and that it's working, brilliant news. Thank you for the update.
