Hi and thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! If your parasite was mites-I have used Certain types of parasiticides to cure these that are commercially available. You would need the weight of your rabbit (many products hobby weight). If you would like a consult please let me know! I would have to get a bit more information first.
