use mayo and put a shower cap over the hair after the mayo has been put on the hair and leave it on for like 8 to 12 hours its really gross but it works my family had 2 cases and we got rid of it that way or call your 3 year olds doctor

You might want to check with your employer. If in fact the school you drive to had an alert for head lice. I am sure you reported this to your employer. Then you are entitled to workman's comp as this is not like a cold.....

If you used NIX ti get rid of them, they're gone. That is a fabulous product. I don't know about hair dyes. They are pretty strong though.

go to the library and get the medical herbs lexicon. I am positive there is a strong lice killing extract in there, I just don't remember what it is... sorry...
