Mites,lice or fungus??help

[leogirl]

My piggy have alot of hair dropping, i dun see anything moving in the fur but its skin has got brownish blackish dots...his skin is not fully bare but got some short short hairs. nothing black or brown on the fur

the dots dun move at. some parts of his body hair is getting lesser n lesser...affcted area are the lower body n the back near "tail" there.

I know there is medication like Ultracare, Accurate for treating fleas n mites and Daktarin for fungus but i not sure what is the problem yet leh so dun dare choose any medication for him...

Any experience owner have the same problem on their piggy?
Pls can help me confirm is it mites,lice,or fungus?

Well, if it's what I think it is, which is mites, then it should be a fairly common problem. Many owners have used some 8 in 1 spray for 'fleas and ticks' (dun ask me why, but it works) to treat it. Just spray it on after bathing and it should be fine after a wk, Make sure it dries before returning piggy back to cage, though. However, my pigs had it before, and it didn't seem to drop much fur... perhaps if you could include a pic, we would be able to help you better.
