Hello, so last week I went ahead and spayed my bun, she's all good and surgery went fine. 2 days ago I started noticing both my buns scratching and grooming themselves alot, most notably their cheeks, feet, and neck, I spend an hour a day trying to see what is the culprit and since one of them has white fur, I'm constantly trying to see if there's any moving mites. I have given both of them advantage, and I also have a bottle of 0.02% ivermectin that I sprayed on their fur. This seems to have done nothing as they are still scratching the same areas. Under a light I found nothing, no flea poop, no dead fleas, no dandruff, and I brushed the white bun's fur and examined any specks that might be moving, I also found nothing. I am really tired and given I just went to the vet for a spay, this is the last thing I need after dedicating so much time syringe feeding and making sure my spayed bun is doing fine. They live inside, and I regularly clean their area. Their ears are also clean and sometimes I catch them aggressively scratching their ears as well. The only difference was I opened a new bag of hay maybe 5 days ago and I deliberately kept my hand in the bag to see if I get bitten but, nothing. I gave them some new toys and they are all natural. Maybe allergic? I am running out of what it could be.. I also had an incident way back where my white bun had hay mites that were chilling on his fur and I could see a bunch of them, but they never caused itching. I also didn't find any of those.
