The best thing to use for lice in pigs in ivermectin. Make sure you are using the correct concentration (typically 1% works best) and dose for Penelope's weight. It can be mixed in with the food or squirted into her mouth. It must be given in two doses two weeks apart. Ivermectin can also be given injectably.
