I'm sorry dude but from what you describe there wasn't going to be any saving your ferret even if you had gotten him to the most expert ferret vet in the world. Hopefully he didn't suffer too much.

I get that and it sucks, I've dealt with the same thing myself when I needed someone to help me with my rats. On the other hand having worked with vets that both do treat and don't treat exotics I do understand why they would turn you away. If a vet doesn't have the training to treat a particular species and the animal dies in their care the owner could sue the poo poo out of them. Owners sue vets because their own pet bites them during an exam that they insist on being a part of so unfortunately the vets have to cover their asses. Again, I'm really, really sorry about your ferret. :(
