Totally agree with bcr229 ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ (& take a stool sample to your vet when you can)

Bringing the snake back in to his shop will only add to its stress, so if you aren't seeing external parasites & that's what he's talking about treating for, that probably won't help.

But flagyl & panacur are another matter- safe & effective when correctly dosed & should help the appetite. I've used both very successfully, by all means take him up on it.

Remember, if he didn't have the snake for long, & you've only had "a couple weeks" it may just be a little slow de-stressing, & may be about to feed for you. No crystal ball here, just saying that when snakes are shipped & change hands a few times, they often get chilled & just too stressed to feed for a while, even when healthy.
