Hi I can understand your concern....
It mostly seems to be pin worm or enterobius vermicularis infection.
Second it could be ankylostoma duodenale or ascaris parasite ....
Albendazole drug effective for it....
If needed stool examination done for it....
And yes for preventing pin worm reinfection keep your hygiene proper...
Hand wash before eating and after defecation needed.
Avoid out side food for few days....
Take care....
