Apple cider vinegar in the water is your best bet. If you only have a few fleas you'll want to comb him over with a flea comb and give him a bath. Moniter him. If you get a full blown infestation you might have to use a prescription flea/tick preventative (talk to your ferret vet about this. You need to use a very small dosage or you could kill your ferret)

The best to use is raw apple cider vinegar with the mother still in it. You can get this at a health food store/ organic food store. This is what I use. I also take it myself for heartburn; cures it instantly no joke.
