Does your dog just use one area of the yard to go to the bathroom. If so just pour boiling water in that area and it should kill the eggs. ALso clean up feces promptly after he goes outside and dig up some of the dirt under it so no pieces get left behind.

…and the ages they are supposed to get them starting from birth?
There was a man who gave away an unwanted chihuahua puppy that I now own and I doubt she has had any shots.
The man said she was born back in April of 2008
I think there is a possibility that she may have some type of worm due to lack of shots.
I would appreciate it if somebody told me the shots a dog is supposed to get and when they are supposed to get them.
I also want to know the symptoms of heart and tapeworm.
Thanks
