Hello All,
We just acquired a Pomeranian puppy about three weeks ago and today it expelled a 3 inch long round worm. (Impressive for a 1kg nine week old dog!). The dog has been inside, and crated, but has had accidents on the floor of our house as she is potty training. I suspect round worm eggs are basically everywhere.
We have toddler and three adults in the house. Typically, would the humans be treated? I've seen mention of albendazole. I'm particularly concerned about our toddler - we'll see the pediatrician on Monday, but I'm not sure if we should find a clinic
