Most of these answers don't understand the question. The question was can I use a ferret shampoo on the DOG. As most ferret shampoos are very gentle, they should be very safe to use on dogs which can generally tolerate more stronger shampoos. That is the reason stronger dog shampoos are not recommended for ferrets.
You SHOULD NOT use dog flea and tick shampoo on yourself as it can give you severe headaches dizziness nausea for up to 3 days after use. It can also mess with your breathing as well if you are asthmatic. try dawn soap and HUMAN bug repellent.
No take him to the vet its ringworm.
Hartz UltraGuard flea and tick products are not recommended for use on ferrets. Many ingredients in these products can be toxic to ferrets, leading to serious health issues. It's important to consult a veterinarian for safe and appropriate flea and tick treatment options specifically designed for ferrets. Always prioritize the safety of your pet when considering pest control products.
Do not use Hartz flea medication of ferrets or any other animals. There has been many reports of Hartz flea medication causing seizures and even killing pets. On ferrets, Advantage and Frontline are safe, but always read precautions before using and consult your veterinarian.
People telling you to not use it are being legalistic. If you look at the ingredients of Rid, they are the same as flea and tick shampoos. They don't have the FDA certification so they say not to use it. Look at all the horse shampoos and hoof treatments that humans use all the time. If I already had the flea shampoo I would use it and asap.
You can use people shampoo on dogs but if your dog has a lot of fleas I recommend you use flea shampoo that can be purchased at your local pet store. For skin conditions like mange, visit a vet for a special shampoo.
Most pet stores sell Frontline and Advantage. While these are not approved for use in ferrets, it is safe to use the smallest kitten dose on ferrets. About one drop per pound of ferret will suffice.

You use a flea repellent spray. You could also take them to the vet and let them use a anti flea shampoo. Before they get fleas, you should give them some type of medicine to prevent fleas.
