hi peeps, ive got a bit of a problem on my hands.
basically few weeks ago i discovered my rabbit had fur mites on his ears. took him vet and treated him with ivermectin jabs - he had his 3rd one yesterday. during this period vet said i should wash the ears (dont worry not the whole rabbit! lol) so i did this about twice a week with anti parasite shampoo. i have also been cleaning/washing/spraying everything. i thought i was out of the woods but have now discovered they are also on his head! why are they now on another area (they werent on his head originally when vet checked) and why are the jabs plus washing not working?? should i now also start using spot on treatment?? ive done endless research online and just cant seem to get anywhere.
would really appreciate any advice
