What Is The Recommended Solution To Treat Pinworm?

I believe my family and I have pinworm. My doctor gave me medication but not for my two babies or my husband. I took it Saturday and still have the symptoms. I am worried I wont get rid of them and wondering how to treat my family... I am 35, so is my husband and I have a one year old and three year old. Scared it is all over my home! I have no idea how long this has been inside me. I work in schools and am assuming its is where I got it from.
