Sorry to hear you're ill, and being rather inconvenienced this week!
Is it worth considering a dehumidifier? When we got our dehumidifier for the flat last year, I noticed a lot of them were reviewed by boat magazines. It made such a massive difference to our flat last year (the walls changed colour due to how much moisture was no longer in them) and, now that it's colder again, it's back in use to dry the laundry. If you don't already, is it worth 'airing the bed' for an hour or so, very grand mother-sh suggestion, but I guess houses used to have these issues.
Also for Duckie in future; maybe flea tablets that also treat ear mites? Higgs came from a micro pig farm and had ear mites which I think the vet missed initially. It was only when I noticed James was bothered by his ears (this reasoning doesn't sound logical, I know, but not the place to explain!) that we took them back to the vet and he gave them a different flea tablet that also kills ear mites. The ear mites lead to irritation that can cause scarring in the ear canal, which may lead to deafness.
