My Tubby had ringworm, he had a big read sore at the side of his nose with hair missing, I was devastated and so upset. I initially panicked, but after reading the articles and with help from the forum, we soon had it under control. Its great you've visited the vet as its best to treat these fungal infections as soon as possible. I followed the the forum guidance step by step. There was allot involved, but it became routine and I didn't think anymore of it. I actually had allot of fun bathing my boys. I was advised to keep my boys together and it never spread from one to the other. I bathed the one without infection in the medication (Imavrol) first, followed by the infected Piggie afterwards. I ensured the room was nice and warm to do this and dried them thoroughly before I put them back. I repeated this every 3 days and cleaned their cage with F10 at the same time. There blanckets were washed every 3 days at 60c.
I was told from the vet "its important to find out which type of fungal infection it is to ensure the right medication is applied" however I was recommended a specific type of medication and was advised to bath them in it rather than just dab it on and it worked super quick. I told the vet what I done and he was impressed and said he must remember this medication and application procedure.
