Help please I am desperate.

Are they kept with the parents?
If yes, you will have to treat them also because if the parents passed the worms into the tank, it will also affect the fry.
But for fry, you will have to be careful with the dosage and not to overdose.

As far as I know, Praziquantel is safe for the fry.
But for other medications, I am not so sure.
No they are kept in a smaller separate aquarium, but I am afraid that by using the state net to fish them or just by the mother having it that they can have it too.
 
Fish keeping is not easy.
The first thing every fish keeper must do is to learn to recognize diseases and to treat them.

Some fish often carry diseases with them due to the fish farms and fish stores ponds/tanks that have worms/parasites.
Sometimes its due to the live foods that they feed them.

You will have to quarantine most fish for at least 2-4 weeks before putting them in the main tank.
A few common diseases are internal infections(worms/protozoa/bacteria), gill flukes, ich(white spot) disease.

Yes I had ich, fin rot, swim blader, now this, I think I will treat all the disease there is, yes but I need to respect that rule in not I will for sure keep adding disease to my collection of treatments, when I was younger I had 300 fishes no filter no light 3 big aquariums one glass the other where styrofoam and didn't had half as much problems and had no information just based on feeling and what I learned from other people now I am older and it's 10 times more difficult and even now with internet and all that info.
 
NT Labs Anti Fluke & Wormer contains flubendazole, but unlike Wormer Plus it is a liquid rather than a powder and it is easier to dose small tanks.
(Wormer Plus is targeted at discus, which are kept in large tanks and it is easier to dose those with powder)
