Worms, Fleas and Mites...OH MY

So I took my little lover to the vet on Friday. The little bastard has tapeworms. A dog gets tapeworms by eating a flea that has eaten tapeworm eggs....SWEET! So, unless I completely get rid of ALL fleas in my indoor and outdoor environment, then the tapes will be back in about two months...which is nice. And, being the hypochondriatic that I am - my butt keeps itching ;) I've been treating T'rone with Frontline, but we'll have to see in two month if there are rice like worms in his poo again. Also when he was at the vet they found a mite in his stool - what does that mean? Oh man...

On a positive note, I have moved into my new home. There are still some boxes and cleaning to do at my old apartment but hopefully I will be fully moved by the end of today. The gas just got turned on here - so now I can take warm showers!!! It's starting to look like a home ;)
