Depends what type of wormer you use.
If you want a wormer/flea treatment then you can use Advocate spot on monthly. I don't de-flea unless there's a problem so I use Milbemax from the vets every 3 months. This cover all the usual worms, plus it helps to prevent lungworm.

This depends on which kind of worming tablet or treatment you use and the weight of your dog.
Rocky is approx 19 kg and has drontal wormer, 2 tablets every 3 months.

definitely depends what you use.
I worm naturally with diatomaceous earth and so they get it a couple of times a week on their food.

Thats a good price. you would need a prescription for Milbemax from your vet if you were to buy it online at most places.
