My 6-week-old puppy tested positive for Parvo, hookworms, roundworms, and tapeworms. We were given antibiotics, dewormer, and anti-nausea medication. She's eating, drinking, and playing, but still has greenish diarrhea. Is there a way to treat her at home effectively, and what should I expect regarding the duration of the deworming process?

My dog chewed on a bottle of Bactine and drank half the bottle. Can you tell me how much Bill weighs and how large the bottle of Bactine was - in ounces or mL? Bactine contains benzalkonium chloride 0.13%, which is equivalent to 1.3 mg/mL. Dogs remained safe after ingesting 12.5 mg/kg, but deaths were seen at 25-50 mg/kg.
