I'm looking after a rabbit and I checked her over yesterday and she had flystrike. Took her straight to the vets and fortunately there was just a small wound, vet removed maggots and shaved the area, and sprayed her with rearguard. When I picked her up he said to use a fly spray on her and sudocrem as well as keep her clean. The whole area looks quite inflamed, and she's still not cleaning herself well, she's quite overweight so I think that could be why. I'm giving her bum baths every time I go and sudocrem, I've been putting her in the run every day to get her moving around. Any more advice? I'm looking after her for 2 weeks, owner is aware and has asked me to keep doing what I'm doing but is there anything else I can do?
