Sounds like Pox's to me.. I dont know if Tony has it Avilible but it called 'Roll on" it's used for horses and stuff to stop the flys. Ive used this in the past with good results.. it's in a little white bottle and it has a blue top.. Good Luck..

It is more than likely pox and there is nothing you can do for it but let it run its course. What you have to worry about is a secondary infection of canker if the pox get in the eye or mouth.

The only thing you can do for Pox is vaccinate for it before they get it. Once they have had it they are immune for life just like people. You can ease the discomfort with oil based topical ointments but you cannot treat it.
