You listed Ruger's age as 12 days, and if that is the case your options are pretty limited. I am guessing though that you meant 12 lbs, and the average German Shepherd puppy would be about 8 weeks old if they weighed 12 lbs. If that's the case you have many more oral and topical options. I often recommend Nexgard, but your veterinarian may have a product that is preferred in you area. You probably need something that will kill fleas quickly, and you may also need to vacuum and bomb your house again. I'd recommend contacting your vet.
