Those appear to be tapeworms. They get those from eating fleas. They do not one from the nose but most likely he was licking that area as they can itch and got a segment in his face. Give him a good bath and make sure to get rid of the fleas. They seek dewormers at the vet and at pet stores that can treat this. Make sure it says for tapeworms as not all dewormers treat them.
