Both my pygmys have lice, they are due to kid in a few weeks so what would be the best thing to treat them with?

My vet prescribed Frontline for my girls
Our holding has Anglo Nubian and British Toggenburg goats, Gotland sheep, Franconian Geese, Blue Swedish ducks, a whole load of mongrel hens and two semi-feral children.

Cooper's Spot-on is also great, if you have no luck with the vet send me a pm, and I decant some for you and OH will bring it with him. It comes in rather large bottles, but I can fill you up two syringes (it is dribbled along their backs starting at the shoulder blades, so syringe without needle works well).
