Hi there and thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! One of the things I will use with my clients is Revolution, which is a topical medication. I do recommend doing so only under supervision of a veterinarian-have your ferret checked to make sure the ear mites are the only problem as commonly other types of ear infections will present with similar symptoms. Your vet can show you how to apply and monitor for reactions if they have never had it. I hope this helps!
