Little white wormsQ: We have 2 cats that stay in the house. i've noticed that one has worms. i'm sure the other does too since they share a litter box. my question is, what type of worms are they? and how do we get rid of them. we're also getting lots of fleas? what flea treatment do you recommend? thank you, carol A: The cats probably have tapeworm which can be treated using tape worm tablets for felines. you should use a product like frontline plus on your cats for flea control. you can also use a capstar tablet to kill the adult fleas. you should also treat the house for fleas as well.
