My son brought scabies into my home from a hotel room, We both have used permethrin i did two times,,we have washed beds, clothes, towels and everything in hot water and sheets in clorox and hot water,,they keep coming back,,,they give you this little tube and want you to apply it all over ;your body,,,well . there is not enough in that tube to successfully do this! we have dogs, so the dogs have them now and they are in our carpet,,my son bought some 10% permethrin for farm animals and diluted it,,,we wiped the dogs down and sprayed the house,,we will see what happens next,,,will have to do this treatment again in one week !! I have never experienced anything like this in my lifetime,,,I ordered on line some Neem oil and tea tree oil and the neem oil is suppose to be a natural insect killer, used in many foreign countries,,i make a soak in my bath with this,,it helps for a few days and now my head is itching again,,The directions said to do this soak in the tub every day until they are gone. Woman have a harder time getting rid of these pets,,cause they have more hair,,,I have bites all over my back,,I am fed up with these damn pests in my house,,look up Neem oil and it's effects,,I will continue using this until i think they are all gone!
