:( I TOOK BELLE TO THE VET TODAY SOME GOOD NEWS SHE HAS PUT ON WEIGHT SHE IS NOW 1STONE 1LB :D AND THE VET CAN FEEL SOME MUSCLE COMING BAK IN HER LEGS

BUT YES SHE HAS MITES:shock: :( WALKING DANDRUFF) APPARENTLY HUMANS CAN GET THIS FROM THEM AS I HAVE A RASH COME OUT ON MYSELF SO IM OFF TO THE VET LOLOL OOOPS DOCTORS.

BELLE HAS TO HAVE 3 COURSES OF INJECTIONS FOR THESE MITES AND TOLD TO DISINFECT HER BED. BUT IT TAKES A COURSE OF INJECTIONS TO GET RID OF THEM
 
cheyletiella mites can affect humans but they cannot live on you..if you treat the rabbit(which you are doing)the mites will no longer cause you a problem.

usually the areas affected in a human are arms and neck/chest basically bare flesh which bun has been in contact with.

spraying the house with an environmental flea spray will take care of any in the environment,where they can survive for a few days.
