I recommend that puppies/kittens get dewormed starting around 6-8 weeks of age. They should be dewormed every 2 weeks, for 4 treatments. A fecal examination should be performed to check for roundworms (most common in puppies and kittens), hookworms and whipworms. Pets should be on a monthly hearworm preventive that has deworming properties, or should be dewormed annually.
