Baby? Don't panic. You have a lot of work ahead though.Don't listen to these folks because there are all kinds of over the counter remedies that you can buy without a prescription. I don't know your ethnicity, but you are going to have to go to the drugstore and buy RidXX or one of the products designed for this. The hard part is sanitizing your entire environment. You have to wash everything you own, including your pillows, comforters, everyone else in the house's heads, lol! You have to keep washing and sanitizing all of your bedding and quit letting folks (and you will notice them too)who come over that are always scratching their heads. I don't know if you are African American but i got them once from a dear friend of mine and I asked her one day, "Why do you hit yourself in the head(platts)all the time?" She told me that African American Folks don't get lice and she was wrong! Go to the drugstore and wash all of your pillows, blankets, bedding, etc. I hope this helps. Sweetie? They are miserable but remember, lice only like clean heads. :) Go to the doctor. Good luck sweetie.

Sound like you need the terminator up in your house. I cant imagine why Its not responding to the treatments youve used so far. Head lice should be real easy to treat. There is a product called kytoso. I'm not sure about the spelling. If you want to do it the natural way. You can oil your hair from root to tip with Vaseline and tie it down. it will stifle the little buggers. If that dont work..perm your hair. They cant live in permed hair. You can be allergic to anything trust me

Go to Walmart, CVS, Walgreens, or Rite Aid and you can buy a kit called Rid X. It's a shampoo, treatment, and a special comb. It will treat it and start getting rid of them.
In the mean time, wash all your sheet, blankets, pillows and pillow cases. Throw away all your brushes and other hair stuffs like ponytail holders or hotrollers that you've used in your hair.
Any clothes such as hats or anything like that needs to be washed.
When you go to get your Rid X, get a baby shampoo with Aloe or a similar shampoo that has no dyes or fragrence, this will help the irritation you have on your scalp.
Calm down, it's very common.

mayonaisse works (and ive heard peanut butter works too but I dont know for sure) slather it on and wrap it in plastic wrap (or a shower cap if you have one) for about 2-3 hours then wash etc (repeat if necessary) lice gets worse here every year I think we have been lucky though my daughter kept getting it a while back but not in 3 yrs now good luck ~Melissa

Try tea tree oil. It has antibiotic properties, it also kills lice, its natural andit may decrease pain and itch. You can pick it up at your local health store or perhaps a drugstore

Go to the doctor. If over the counter remedies are not working for you, you may need a prescription. No one here can give you that.

I heard vinegar (table) is very effective. Wash your hair with it.
P.S. It is going to smell bad.
