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.

How toxic to humans is this treatment?Q: I am very alergic to insecticides and have a doberman that aparently has mites (demodex). the d;og's treatments could include mitaban, ivermectin, milbecin and antibacterial shampoo. can you please tell me if any of these contain pyrythrin or any similar agents that i am very alergic to? thanks, bob kindorf A: Because you have an allergy to pyrethrins, you may also have a cross-allergy to related products. for this reason, you should wear rubber or vinyl gloves, and a face mask whenever you are handling the products. also check with your personal physician for further recommendations.
