It also has a 14 day incubation period so when you think it's over, make everyone sleep in conditioner again in a week.<br />Good Luck!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4483464756140726081.post-70770310200331972912009-10-20T17:17:29.432-05:002009-10-20T17:17:29.432-05:00OMG you poor, poor thing.

I found a solution for us, that may also work for your family. Purchase a bottle of tea tree oil from your local pharmacy. Put about a dozen drops in each shampoo bottle that you use. Shake the bottle each time before using. The oil puts off a scent that the critters don't like, but it really doesn't change the effect or scent of the shampoo. It will not kill them once you have them, but it is supposed to keep them away once the hair is free of them. Might be worth a try, it worked for us.Chellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13809615941910416422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4483464756140726081.post-78531391743062809232009-10-20T10:16:22.931-05:002009-10-20T10:16:22.931-05:00Rayli - i have unfortunately due to my geographic ...Rayli - i have unfortunately due to my geographic location suffered this plague in my house twice. once with live bugs!!!!!!! and once with nits. I praya you never experience this again but if you do...Firstly - skip all the chemical shampoos - put thick conditioner on the hair - like pantene - and ALOT - finish half a bottle if you have to, leave it on overnight or for a 4+ hours - it suffocates the bugs and the eggs, then you have to pick them out (sorry no help for that) although we have a lice lady who charges @ 40$/hr to clean out heads. well worth it!!! good luck!!!
