My puppy has roundworms. What dewormer is safe for him and my dog?

Question

My puppy, (rescue) mixed breed, about 6 lb., 4 months old, needs to be wormed. I saw a round worm in his stool. He is eating well, playing and sleeping well. I want to act quickly for his sake and our elderly chihuahua as well. I have not see anything in her stool. Pls recommend a med(s) suitable for each of them. Preferably a broad spectrum medicine. Thank you, Judy. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Male | 3 months and 26 days old | 6 lbs
