I was in contact with some puppies yesterday that had the parvovirus about a week and a half ago. I work at my parent's office and they bring their 2 dogs to work with them everyday. I'm feeling absolutely horrible right now because I do not want to transmit the disease to them. The one dog had it when he was a puppy, but is up to date on his vaccinations and the other dog has never had it, but is also good until September 2019 with her shots.
I've not worn any of the same clothes or shoes, but I'm afraid my car is contaminated because of our shoes. So how do I clean everything so that I don't pass it on? I can wash my clothes with normal detergent, but what about my car and shoes? What do I clean those with?! Also, my cell phone was in my pocket, how do I clean that? I'm so paranoid right now and feel like crying!

Sounds like your folks did the right thing with the vaccinations and you did the right thing by calling the vet to get something to clean up with...so be easy on yourself...you did everything right!
My only suggestion is just to have your folks tell the pups' vet what happened and just check to see if anything else can be done. I am guessing not, but just close that loop so you have peace of mind!
I am sorry you had to go through this...prayers for the pups with the illness and everyone involved! TAKE CARE!!!
Use a solution of 10% bleach and 90% water. Call the vet for advice.
Thanks but I cant really bleach the leather in my car.. it will ruin it. Ive contacted a vet and they are ordering something I can use for it.
Your parents did the most important thing. They had their dogs vaccinated. Chances are minimal that they will contract the virus. If they do, it will be a very mild case. A bleach solution should work for cleanup.
