In the last few days I have noticed one of my bunnies had a few flakes of dander on her fur. I found the source today on theback of her ears. I can't physically see any mites although I know this doesn't mean anything. The insides of her ears are clean and no where else on her body is there dandruff. I haven't noticed her scratching more than usual and her cage mate has no signs of dander or mites. I would normally treat with Ivermecton but the rabbit in question is a Dutch cross and there has been some suggestions that Dutch rabbits should not have ivermetin due to reactions.
Does anyone have experience treating a Dutch with ivermectin or other possible treatments that may work? (I have talked to my vet and she is doing some research because she said ivermectin is what is normally used when skin mites are suspected - I have an appointment booked but can not make it in for a week and a half.)
