So, I found a worm sticking out of Tumble's anus this evening. We'll be trying to collect a fecal tonight and storing it in the fridge until we can get to the vet tomorrow. He was wormed a few weeks ago, but he did have some fleas when we got him and had been treated with Frontline or Advantage, so I wasn't extremely worried about it. We've never had to deal with worms before (strange, I know), so I'm not sure how to sanitize and if my other 2 cats are at risk of getting them. After we get him treated, what steps do we need to take to sanitize his room, bedding, carpets, and litter box? I'm assuming we'll need to wash all the bedding in hot water and throw out the litter and bleach the box.
What about my other 2 cats? They've not shared the litter box, but they've been in the room, sniffed him, walked around in there and stuff like that. Should they be treated as well?
ETA: They've not shared boxes, but we've been using the same scoop in all the boxes, so they've potentially been exposed as well.
