Poor Gattu. He needs a good quality oral worm tablet and would also recommend an oral flea/tick/mite treatment such as simparica. With the weakness, an antibiotic may also be helpful, especially if he has a fever. I would also bathe twice weekly with chlorhexidine scrub or malaseb medicated shampoo
