vaccinations??

Hi there,
Couldnt find a thread with info on vaccines so starting one.
A few years ago I looked into vaccinations for ferret and was told that the single distemper vaccine was no longer available. Instead u had to use the combined dog vaccine (incuded distemper, hepatitis and parvo) at a dilute rate and it wasnt uncommon for ferrets to have adverse reaction to this.
As distemper was quite rare these days it might be safer not to bother esp as they where not working ferrets.
My question....have thing changed now? If not and u have a working ferret do u risk the vaccine or risk not getting distemper???
All answers appreciated thank u in advance
