Bites from ferret usually do not cause infections. As with any animal bite, always cleanse the area thoroughly. Tetanus is a disease caused by a toxin produced by the bacterium Clostridium tetani.
According the Merck Manual, people at risk of infection from tetanus are ones that have burns, surgical wounds and injecting drug users and it is relatively rare in the US.
