Hello guys!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just have a question about the treatment I have to give to to my chinchilla Pocky.
I just got Pocky recently and noticed she was scratching a lot and had some dryness (kinda looked like a scab) on her ear. I brought her to the vet and she was diagnosed with mild mites. The vet said he gave her a shot and then told me that two weeks later I have to follow up and put revolution (dog and cat flea/tick/mites prevention) on her skin. The way it was explained to me I have to part her fur and put it on her skin. Now I usually don't question the professionals except nowhere online that I have searched does it mention anything about treating mites in chinchillas with revolution.
I read online and it says to give them dust baths because it helps. And so far everything looks A LOT better than when I first got her. I don't have any current pictures so when I get home tonight I will upload before pictures and then take one currently so you can see the difference.
I was told to put the revolution in the 19th so the date is coming soon. Should I take Pocky to a different vet? Or should I not put this stuff on her? I know their coats are VERY dense so I just don't want to make this situation worse by doing something she might not potentially need at all.
Thank you guys for all your help!
