<DIV style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt; FONT-FAMILY: tahoma, new york, times, serif">Glad to hear your babies are being treated and they will be okay...just takes a while. I researched and found some info for you on transmission. One place I saw said they can even pick them up the flea off the grass. One trick I use to use when I had carpet was to throw a flea collar in the vacuum bag. Also when you empty the vacuum, do it outside to prevent those from reinfesting.</DIV>

The worm's eggs then pass through the intestines and adhere to the nether regions of the dog, and the cycle begins again </DIV>
