My Guinea pig have dandruff, so I went to the vet and she told me it's just dry skin, (probable because I washed my pigs lately) also try looking through its fur, my Guinea pigs reacently had lice and we cured them within a day or too using addvantig. Hope I help.

Even I scan there fur & found that it was not dandruff but mites, so I gave them dose of ivermectin , its working :) Its such a relief after 1 or 2 dose they'll be fine.
