The dear little ferret I own, Peppy, has a recurrent skin infection under her arm. A few months ago she was on some antibiotics for just over a week and it cleared up. Somehow though, its back. And with the recurrence comes a stronger, longer dosage of antibiotics to clear it up.
In addition I've taken to removing a few things from her cage (that have been there for years but...) that may or may not be causing the problem. After that if it continues to come back the next step is, undoubtedly, blood work to rule out any other, nastier issues.
Despite the twice daily torture I subject her to with the dosages, she's in high spirits and relatively active for a 4 1/2 year old.
