Hi!
My squirrel (Joey) has been SUPER itchy lately. We had a flea problem a while back with our cats, but it cleared up without seeming to get into Joey's room. Now, it's a few months later and he is just constantly itching and biting on himself. He even dragged his butt on the ground a bit to itch himself there too. I would think it was fleas, but I don't see any on him and I searched all over him. Also, some patches of his hair seem to be a bit off (not a bunch missing, but a little). It isn't red or anything though. Any clues on what it may be? Should I just treat him for fleas anyway?
Otherwise, he is super active. He is acting the exact same - just itching/biting a lot.
Also, his diet is fine - he gets 2 HHBs a day along with a variety of vegetables, and sometimes fruits and or nuts. So I doubt that is the issue.
Any help would be great! Thanks!
