Yuck yuck yuck yuck yuck
My bunnies have mites. I noticed them all down their backs (mega dandruff etc) and vet said a sample showed a few mites. There is some scaliness too.
They are all starting on weekly bimectin (oral). Is this the right medicine? The dose seems small too about 0.05ml (which I put in a little sterile water) and seems odd to only give it once a week (for 6 weeks).
My questions are:
What else can I do? Should I groom them - obviously using their own comb?
Should I use a spot on thing too - are fleaas different from mites or are they the same things?
I will keep their bedding clean but I always do. This is all getting utterly awful now.
How did they get these? Are they sore - Marcy has some red patches and I think Archie does too
Should I wash them - I think the shock would kill them to be honest.
Help help help help help!

P.S. can I catch them?
