My guinea pig seems to have dandruff on his head, and he has been treated for mites... two weeks ago with Revolution.
When I scratched him on his head, it seems some fur came off and it looks a little flaky - white.
It is my understanding that Revolution also treats lice.
The skin looks fine... pink and healthy. No scabs or anything like that. Could this be dandruff?
Everything I have read suggests that folks lean more towards mites... Can guinea pigs have a genuine case of dandruff? Would fur come off in that case???
Thank you.
