As for the oxygen, when I had to treat against ick, I hooked up an oxygen pump to my tank and did not raise the temp myself (to not stress the fish too much , as you mentioned...).

And according to literature, ick starts in the gills, so I agree with you that it is difenetly there!
Yeah if I remember correctly the gills are the easiest tissue for ich to attack and do usually start there. I have heard that quite often this is also where the ich will linger even after it seems a fish is ich free.
