Unfortunately, ferrets are as keen as cats to use the litterbox. If they have to go, they go.
The first step would be training the ferret to use the litterbox in the cage (use a ferret safe litter like paper pellets, not cat litter). Usually restricting the ferrets space is helpful because they do no like to poo on their sleeping area or their food. Be sure to use a large square litter pan.
Do not let them out of the cage before they have used the litter box. Keep placing them in until they go.
The same theory goes for training around the house. Place a few litterboxes around the room so your ferret can choose. When they have to go, it isn't fair for them to have to run all the way across the room. Moniter your ferret carefully. If he starts backing into a corner to go, grab him and place him in the nearest box. He may try to jump out but be consistent and keep placing him in the box. Once he goes in the box, be sure to give him lots of praise, or even his favorite treat. Never punish a ferret for accidents, this is cruel and can cause agression. Clean up any accidents with an odor removing cleaner. Natures Miracle is a good one.
If you notice your ferret going in a particular spot, you may want to place a box there as well.
