Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! It depends on the active ingredient in the shampoo, but likely no. Pyrethrins are not safe in pregnant dogs. I would contact your Vet for Fipronil products or look online. I am assuming by "children" you mean the puppies and not human children. If you want to tell me the name of the shampoo and the chewable tablet I can look in to it's safety. I do not recommend vaccinating pregnant dogs. I hope this helps!
