I have a female guinea pig, Abigail or Abi as we call her. She is all black. I am looking for a new home for her. She did have a friend, Molly for a little while but has not had a friend for the past two years. She is friendly, has never bitten. She squeeks a lot if she hears my voice, cause she...

Okay thanks Ly&Pigs for clearing that up, if you wouldnt have told me I probably would have used one.

Okay, thanks I wasnt sure if fleas and lice were the same. I will not do a preventative treatment, since most people say fleas are pretty uncommon. If she does get fleas or lice I will go ahead and treat her. Angelgal I dont know if those sprays work, so maybe someone else here can help you.

Okay, sorry for not reading closer. I just went to the link and clicked on the dosing calculator. Fleas and lice are the same, right?

Iv'e heard of advantage before but never of revolution. Does revolution treat fleas and mites, or just mites? Are both advantage and revolution avaliable at the store?

Okay thank you everyone i will not use flea medicine as a preventative but only as a treatment if she gets them. I havent looked at the links yet, but i am going to right now. Thanks

So i would use as much as a small dog would on my guinea pig? Do i get the dog, puppy, or kitten version?

Okay, so its best not to do it im guessing... What if she does get them? Hopefully she wont, but i really enjoy letting her go outside i just dont want her to get sick though

So if i got advantage for dog or cats how much would i use? Also would i do it once a month? Even if fleas aren't common i would like to be on the safe side and prevent it, because it would be a lot worse if she got them.

I have recently started taking my guinea pig outside, within the last month and am worried about her getting fleas. Is there a medicine i can use to prevent her from getting them? How often would i use it and how much? Thank you

Okay thanks you, I just want the best for my piggy.

Jane_G--- I converted it into grams earlier and thats why i thought she was heavy, but i guess as long as she is eating healthy its okay right?

Yeah i guess i just took it as too big and didnt think about what else he meant

Oh okay thanks, and yes when i go to get her antibiotics today i will make sure to ask about a second shot

Oh okay thanks guys. He just said she was big, so i guess i took that as too big. I know i am going to give her the antibiotics for a week and then go back for them to check her out and probably give her another shot

No they did weigh her. she weighs 2.3 pounds and he said thats pretty big so i was trying to find the proper weight and what i should do to lower it and keep her healthy. Sorry i didnt say they weighed her earlier, that probably would have helped.. I'll make sure to include all helpful...

They gave her a shot and i have to go back and the antibiotics tommorow because they didnt have them at the time. They said i have to give her the antibotics twice a day for a week (oraly), and if it doesnt clear up then i have to go back in two weeks. I feel so bad for her :( she was...

okay thanks, ill check that site out

As you guys read, my piggy Abi has mites. I took her to the vet to get her meds and antibiotics. Pretty much my question is how much should a female guinea pig who is about two years old weigh?

Okay thanks :) We are calling places now to see who has it.
