I apply the extract mixed with glycerine once daily, cover it with a bandage, and ingest garlic and acidophilus (sp) pills--all suggested by the home remedy site I discovered on the net.

Grapefruit seed extract does have anti-fungal properties, but I usually recommend tea tree oil for topical fungal infections. If it causes irritation, dilute it 1:1 or 1:2 with olive oil.

I checked my reference book and your on the right track with the garlic and acidophilus. I have never heard of the grapefuit seed extract but I don't think it can hurt. Keep on trying the treatment, glycerine is very healing and may help with the itching caused by ringworm. Also, benadryl spray is great to stop the itching.
