What to buy for lice?

My guinea pigs have lice and I have been trying to find ivomec topical but cant seem to find it. I was wondering if you could give me a site where I can order it? Thanks! Also would ivomec be the best way to go to treat them?

Ivermectin, Advantage, and Revolution are all good. The ivermectin can also be topical. If you can't find horse paste ivermectin from stores, just do a google search for "ivermectin horse paste" and a bunch of results will come up.

It isn't going to say topical on it. You can use the injectible topical.
