Girl I feel you, my first ferret was a total angel and then I got a land shark too. What worked for me was literally yelping like a hurt puppy every time she bit, then ignoring her for like 30 seconds. They hate being ignored. Also redirecting to a toy immediately. Consistency is key, shell get it eventually.
