Whiskey Tango Foxtrot asked:
My friend has a severe case of ringworm, which she didn’t treat promptly (she rescued two kittens who had them). Now she has it severly, the dog, and the three other cats have it (but the kittens are clear). The kittens were out occasionally out when infested, the dog and the other cats have been out. Could the carpet and the furniture have been infested with ringworm? If it has been, how do you clean the furniture and the carpet?

If the dogs/kittens lay on the carpet and you lay on the carpet then yes. It does sit on linen (bedding/bathroom/pillows)
if it’s been a bad case and still creeping up get the carpets cleaned, and throw away pillows or wash them – the warmer (Hot) water the better –
(I had ring worm from a cat – and it was due to it laying on a pillow)
