Question blood with pin & round worms!! need info.

My blood finally took her first poop since I bought her and I took it for a fecal test. Turns out she has pinworms and roundworms.
My vet said pinworms are passed down from parents and roundworms can be picked up from rodents and amphibians.
Can anyone give me more information about this, can this happen to a captive bred animal? The vet also said that it is unlikely for these parasites to be passed from reptile to reptile unless they eat the others feces. Blah!! I don't think they would do that. Any information about this would be greatly appreciated!
The vet fit me in to pick up meds. on Monday so if anyone can tell me what meds. they've used and found to be most effective and the least harmful...I would appreciate that as well. I've heard some scarey stories about the wrong meds. being used....and I don't want that to happen with me girl.
