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..... |
lol...I can't even imagine having to try to deal with that!! The vet told us to use a sulfur shampoo b/c that would kill the lice.. which it did, its just all the dead ones left on him (at least I hope)..I know, gross! He has the Revolution too, but he is still scratching and rubbing every where.. so I hope they're all gone! I'm also hesitant to give him another bath since I applied the Revolution already, I don't want to wash it off.
