i just spent 450 bucks on our dog's checkup last night, shit is not cheap. if you got ticks in your bed, you should wash all your sheets, vacuum all your floors, wash your dog, and get him/her some frontline or other type of flea/tick repellent ASAP

The city is really nice in the fact that if you adopt a pup from them, you have one week to make an appointment at participating Vet offices for a free appointment. Any treatment required at this first appointment is free. So while she will require a lot of treatment (she's pooping worms, has ticks, runny nose), it won't cost me a thing.

Not treating the puppy myself allowed the vet to treat him as he saw fit

This was my thought, too. I could have gone out for tick soap and what not but I figured the doc should diagnose first. Her appointment is in about four hours, I'm excited to get her better.
As a side note, I am so impressed with how happy of a pup she is with all these ailments! She's super outgoing, happy, and excited despite having worms coming out of her butt and blood sucking vermin on her skin. She's da best.
