Found out large scab on my guinea pigs back. She has been scratching and biting herself lately.
I think she has got mites, so I used Ivermectin on her straight away. See how she is getting on and maybe I will give her another dose in 10days. Do I need to give her a bath in something else?
How long do I wait until is more serious and she needs to go to vets?
Shall I give her a few days? When does the itching stops?
Is there anything else I can rub on her scab? Do I need to treat other guinea pigs, those who are in her cage?
Many thanks.
