Hello everyone!!!
Eddy saw his new vet yesterday and he was great (very informative about piggies). He gave me some drops to apply to Eddy to kill the lice (it also works on mites which Eddy doesn't have but just in case). It's called Revolution and is used on puppies/kittens, but is safe for piggies. He said that we could do either injections or the drops (injections cost more than 2x as the drops and would be more traumatizing, the drops I can do at home and don't have to take him out). He also said that Red Bell peppers are a good source for vit. c and contain antioxidants that would be good for them as well. He also suggested giving Eddy vit. c chewable tablets since he doesn't drink much water. So, just some info. for you all. 
Have a great day!!!
Chasity and Eddy
