My dog is pregnant but hasn’t been dewormed in over a month and is full of parasites; what can I do, and how much does vet deworming cost?

Do Rabbits Need Deworming?
Yes — pet rabbits need regular deworming even though their high body temperature limits fleas and lice; poor hygiene can still bring mites. Start at 2 months: kits 2-6 months monthly, over 6 months every ~3 months, adults every 6-12 months. Dose carefully (most products are toxic), disinfect feces with lime milk, treat all rabbits together, and sanitize the cage with boiling water or sun.
