I always thought lice couldn't live on pets... hmmmm icky, I learn something new every day on here.

I'm sorry, I can feel ya, my kids had it and my oldest got it twice..... it was awful. We used over the counter stuff and it didn't work. What did work was mayo, sounds weird but it worked. The mayo smothers them. I greased up her hair and put a shower cap on her and then let her sleep in it, next day I rinsed her with vinegar and hot water. Worked like a charm. Wish I had known the first time because the over the counter stuff is like the nastiest chemical and I feel horrible for putting that on my child. Not sure how you could mayo him up without him trying to lick it. Maybe a cone collar.....
