Depending on how old your cat is, you can use Frontline, which I would recommend. You could also use Revolution. There is a worming medicine, that is given orally. Frontline is also given orally. Revolution, however, is treated by squirting it right in between the cat's shoulder blades. With Revolution you do not have to worry about the cat licking it off themselves, it will not harm them in any way. For De-worming, you can get it at the vet, or at an animal shelter.
