Cherie,
 
In my opinion...... just that... my opinion.  I would take this cat straight to the vet for a scraping for ringworm.  If it is ringworm it's highly contagious and you would have a mess on your hands treating all your cats.
 
If it's ringworm it's an airborne fungus, so it's very hard to keep it contained.

I've never used Fulvicin, but I wouldn't hesitate to use it. I'd probably
stop the Fulvicin and just use some Golden Seal. I've used Gentian Violet
recently on a cat (Sparkle)'s ears, had some fungus that looked like
ringworm. Did 1 or 2 applications , and it looks much better. May just do
some golden seal in water on them at this point.
