You can use a drench specially formulated for goats or sheep and goats. The drench has to get rid of the worms. It will usually say what type or if it does kill worms in goats. If a goat is left for too long with worms, it will, in a small chance, survive, but in a larger chance, die.

What is a good worm medicine for a goat?
Several treatments, or de-wormers, can be used. First, perform a fecal egg count on your goat to determine what type and how many worms you are dealing with. Just collect 3-4 fecal pellets and take them to a large animal vet. They should do a detailed, accurate "fecal" for $7-$10. Next, find a de-wormer that kills that type (or types) of worms. For tapeworms or lungworms, use "Valbazen". For roundworms or strongyles, use "Ivomec Injectable". For a broad-base, use "Cydectin Pour-On". Dose at 1-2 times the recommended label dose for cattle and sheep. If there is a heavy worm load, dose higher for 3 consecutive days. Then after 10 days, do another "fecal" to determine whether you solved your worm problem.
