Unhappy My little boys got worms!

My babes has got worms and its something I know nothing about. None of my dogs have ever had them before and now my babes has got them. I have given him Drontal Plus like it says but I have a problem. One vet in Portugal is saying to give it 3 days on the run and the vet in Spain is saying just one dose and another dose after 15 days if they havent gone.

The other thing is my babes is very unconfortable He keeps running round in circles then plonking his bum on the floor. He is also trying to lick his bum but luckily he cant reach it Does anyone know if I can put any cream on his bum to stop the itching or does he just have to put up with it. Also does anyone know which vet I should believe about the dosage on the tablets?

That can be bad if you had a carpet, Remember when I was younger our dog had them and used to drag his ass on the carpet to itch and make skid marks all over it

Worms are a real pain in the arse, and hard to wriggle out of, what a bummer!
