Answer
Teri, sneezing could be from many things - are you using a new cleaning solution for the floors ?  It could be an allergic reaction.  Going back to the product you used to use could be the solution.

BUT If her front legs are matted from cleaning her nose it usually means she has a purulent infection.  In that case I would recommend she see a vet and get antibiotic care.

Rabbits cannot use all antibiotics and many vets do not know this.  If the vet says she has an infection ask him to use long-acting penprocelina, 30,000,000 - she will need 1 ml per kilo of body weight - two shots two days apart should do it.   The very best way is to do a cultures and sensitivity test but that can be expensive.

Hope this helps,
