Best Answer

If you love your hamster, and if you have the extra bit of money to spend, then take him/her to the vet to be treated. It will end up better then it would just ignoring the rash.

If you can't afford the vet bill, then call a vet over the phone. Most vets won't charge for advice.

Can you wash rabbits which have flaky skin?

Rabbits with flaky skin probably have a fur mite infestation (Cheyletiella is the type of mite). Take your rabbit to the vet, who can give you the proper treatment for this. It is not a good idea to wash a rabbit with flaky skin. Baths can be very stressful for rabbits, and can lead to panic and injury. Because the rabbit has flaky skin, the skin is already very sensitive, and a bath could make things worse. Only a vet with experience and training in rabbits can help a rabbit with flaky skin. See the related questions and links below for more details.
