You better check your vaccination records again because vaccinations 6 in 1 do not include wormers. 6 in 1 vaccinations normally include canine distemper, adenovirus cough, hepatitis, parainfluenza, parvovirus, and leptospirosis.

You need to have your dog wormed. You will need to give the medication 3-4 times every 3 weeks. Wormers are given by mouth. It is important to get the puppy treated as soon as possible because worms can make her very sick and in severe cases can cause death.

The only way your child would catch the wormers from the puppy is is they accidentially ingested the fecal matter. If they help you pick up after the puppy, just make sure that your child wash their hands afterwards and the risk is extremely small.

those would be tapeworms, there is a one pill treatment, and you must get that treatment. The only way to get tapeworms is to ingest a flea,but ask you vet about your child just to be safe.
