Strongyloids

Urgh. Ventress had some chest symptoms, which instantly resolved once we went to vet. Vet looked him over, listened to chest, looked in mouth, all fine. Advised to send off a fecal sample so did this and he has strongyloids. I'm mortified. I don't understand how he has got it, I'm so careful with him. Picking up medication tomorrow but any advise is welcome. Where have I gone wrong???? Has anyone else experienced this? I'm worried to death. And paranoid what if it's got in me somehow. What a nightmare. Feel like a terrible bluey mum right now.
He's got 10 days of medicine so going to clear all his soil out at 5 days, replace it. Then send another sample off after the medication.
Please someone have experience of this and put my mind at ease x
