What is the active ingredient in the de-wormer you used for tape worms caused by fleas?
Remy just got a huge infestation of them Sunday night (at friend's house and she did not tell me they had fleas....grrr...). He had over 50 on him! He's been bathed, I've flea combed him about 15 times. He is on Sentinel so that is helping, and although he had a topical (Natures Remedy) treatment, he still got just attacked. Anyhow, want to be proactive on the tapeworm situation.
I have Panacur, and on the packaging it says it addresses tape worms. Is this the drug you used, or was there a different one?
