Answer
Your rabbit may have one of several skin mites. This needs to be diagnosed by having a vet perform skin scrapes and looking under the microscope to identify them. They are usually treated with a drug called Ivermectin which is given by injection.
I recommend you take her to a vet as soon as possible so she can be treated.
