    No, on a contrary since it is a Canada it is safe to say it is wc, besides if that in fact is spargana, there is no way it is cb, that nasty guy gets in when a frog is a tadpole in contaminated areas and then sits in, matures and then migrates into subcutaneous layer and forms things like you see here, abscess looking lumps. It is rarely that thing is alone as they mature in waves, meaning you will see more of these within certain intervals, can be weeks, can be months. It is not contagious to other frogs or anything in the enclosure, however a frog has to be hospitalized and treated asap, it is intermittent tapeworm form, it doesnt reproduce.
    It is extremely dangerous to use antiparasitic drugs, if there are more of these that are not visible now and all of them die as a meds result a frog might die too as a result of massive toxicosis. The only way to treat is to keep frog as stress free and as clean as possible, keep and feed spot on AND surgically remove the worm and use antibacterial meds. And wait.... For the next one.... Until they all are gone.

    that is all provided it is in fact spargana, but it sure looks like it from these pics..

    p.s. OP cant have dubia it is canada ((((( we are not allowed and are forced to stick with stinky crickets (((((
    Save one animal and it doesn't change the world, but it surely changes the world for that one animal!
