Is it true that larvae remain in the soil after a dog that is infected with worms poops there?

Question

I clean poop twice a day, but it seems my dogs still get worms after they have been treated by the vet.

Answer 1

Your dogs probably have fleas. Fleas carry the eggs of intestinal worms. Dogs eat the fleas, eggs hatch inside the dogs.

But yes, the microfillaria live quite a while in warm soil and children can get them that way also.

We treat our dogs once a month with a product called FrontLine.

Answer 2

Go to pets/dogs and ask that question

Answer 3

yep
