I think the guinea pigs have ringworm. My daughter got it on her hand and I noticed the guinea pigs are scratching behind their ears and had some flakey spots and scabs around their ears and one of them by her eye. We are using ringworm cream on our daughter but I’m freaking out because I’ve read it’s very difficult to get rid of because the spores can last so long. We can’t afford to spend a bunch of money at the vet for them but I just don’t know what to do. We have only had them for a few weeks and I noticed the itching about a week ago. One also had a bald foot when we got her but I didn’t think much of it at the time. Please tell me your experiences! I can’t allow my kids to get this repeatedly and I’m really nervous. I also made all their fleece liners and am not sure now if I need to throw them away. I’m scared to wash them in our clothes washer now.
