Hello,
Tapeworms are caused by fleas. Please take your fur baby to the vet and bring a fecal sample with you so he/she can identify the specific parasite. Your Vet will give you medication for this, there is not a home remedy. I have worked for a Veterinarian for over 27 years. Good luck.
Tape worms are not something to mess around with so please ask your veterinarian for a prescription to get rid of the worms and also what you need to do to keep them from coming back!
