Hi I just noticed this wound close to my guinea pig's rump rosettes.
:/ It's their 3rd week with ivermectin (behind the ears) as I had noticed they had been scratching a lot. But I don't see any improvement. I took them to the vet three weeks ago,I had noticed a bit of dandruff/flaky skin) There is no exotic vet where I live, ( Faroe islands), only a general one. She told me without -really checking them- that it's most likely mites. My other guinea pig doesn't have anything I have noticed but sounds in pain when scratching
. (It is a peruvian one)
What do you suggest I do? Is there anything extra you would recommend?I cleaned the cage and washed the fleece on 60 degrees. Also put their wooden stuff in the oven for 20 mins on 100 C degrees (I read that it kills mites)
I also have an anti-lice shampoo from gorgeous guineas but I am not sure whether I should give them a bath ( they're a year old and they never had one).
Also, is there anything I should put on the wound? Thanks in advance![Purple heart :purple_heart: 💜](https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f49c.png)
