You said he was infested with fleas, and I think I warned about that earlier. The dewormer does not get rid of those, you need to get the pill from a vet (don't use over the counter meds). It's cheap and easy, so call the vet and tell them what you are seeing and he may give you the pill without even bringing him in. At least my vet does.

As far as any other type of worm, call the vet and ask if those would be coming out several days after the dewormer.
Yes that's exactly what they look like. I will call the vet tomorrow. Thank you so much.
