Present study has been planned to achieve a long term effective control of concurrent natural infection of gastro-intestinal helminths, lice and mange infections in pigs. Piglets were randomly divided in to two groups (I and II) each group contains six piglets. For the comprehensive control of common G.I. helminths and mite infection acquired by the piglets born from parasite free pregnant sows on or after 35^th to 40^th days after birth, were also treated with the same chemical and herbal anthelmintic and miticidal control packages respectively. Haemato biochemical study revealed significant (P<0.01) decrease in the values of Hb, PCV TEC and Ca, P, Zn, Cu, TSP and Albumin before treatment. Group-I treated chemical anthelminthic and miticide completely recovered of piglets from G.I. helminths was observed on 10^th DPT onwards and negative for Sarcoptes scabiei infestation from 15^th DPT. In group-II, treated with herbal anthelmintic and miticides package complete cure of piglets from G.I. helminths was observed on 25^th DPT onwards and negative for Sarcoptes scabiei infestation from 15^th DPT. In both treatment groups restoration of haemato- biochemical parameters on were recorded in different days post treatment. Chemical anthelmintic and miticide drugs and herbal anthelmintic and miticide package were also found very effective for a long time sustainable and comprehensive control of endo and ectoparasite, these animals were treated at intervals with the same drugs as and when reinfection appeared so that animals could be kept parasite free up to the entire period of observations.
