Best Answer

My suggestion would be to use nothing - ferrets are not simply small humans and can react very differently to medications and doseages that are safe in humans. Particularly for a viral infection (such as a stomach flu), it is best to keep a close eye on your ferret for signs of severe disease or dehydration but otherwise let him work it through his system himself.

If you are concerned that your ferret needs medication, you need to contact your veterinarian for an appointment - all medications for ferrets will need a veterinary prescription.

What is scruffing a ferret?

Scruffing a ferret is sometimes required to handle a ferret who is sick, injured, trying to escape or refusing to take a medication or have a wound looked at. It is the same concept used by moms to carry their young. You hold the ferret by the scruff of the neck, which is the loose skin on the back of the neck. It doesn't hurt but doesn't allow the ferret to escape either. The mother ferret scruffs her babies to discipline them and she also carries them by the scruff, like cat's do.
