Default Heartworm Testing

I had a question about how effective the heartworm test is. Do the HWs have to be adults for the test to read positive?

The reason why I ask is because I realized the other day that I have slipped behind on my Interceptor. Previously, I had a reminder set on my phone but I have since lost it and just completely forgot about that reminder. The babies have missed only one dose, at most. Should we go ahead and test before starting new treatment? What are the chances of them having them? Also, does anyone know if the test is expensive? Maggie has not been tested since we've had her and Franklin has never been tested. Are they due to be tested anyway?

I'm almost sure they don't have them but I'm so nervous and paranoid that they are going to just suddenly die on me. Sorry for all the questions!
