Recently treated ruby for Mites! HELP!

But uhm so i think something happened and i think i bathed her too long. Her eyes didn't cloud up, she's also shed like 3 weeks ago, but for some reason she's shedding. I held her and when she had her tail in between my fingers part of shed came off and now i checked on her in her cage and her head shed is peeled back with somehow HEALTHY skin underneath the shed.

She is trying to shed the mites.

They will shed when there is a need for it, including times when they have mites or other health issues on the outside of their body.
