My daughter has been battling a rash for some time now. I would say since Jan 2011. She is 4 years old.

I was told it was her having an allergic reaction and then folliculist. They tested for the infection and she came back negative.

Then i remember my cousin told me her daughter and her had scabies so i thought...when was the last time we went to their home. Sure enough it was in late december.

3 Weeks ago my daughter and the whole family got treated for scabies me, my son, husband . Nobody but my daughter had any symtons.

However, after the treatment my son and i are very itchy. i feel pricking thoughout my body. i feel like i have something crawling on my face or something like lose hair strands and when i got to remover them nothing is there. is so weird. My son and i have been getting red dots appearing on our bodies.

my husband thinks i'm crazy and doesn't want to know anything about my research. GRRR I can honestly say I haven't offically seen any burrows. After my permathrin treatment could i still have scabies?

how often can someone do the permatrin treatment? i bought sulfur soap today and cream. I keep seeing everyone talk about this desmisil products but they seem kinda expensive. we don't have alot of money. can anyone please help me? could the itchiness and red dots mean we still have scabies?

Thanks this stuff worked now me and my daughter are in the clear. This scabies was such a learning lesson. Thanks for all the tips and tricks.

In my opinion no one should put pesticides on their body to treat scabies unless they have tried all other treatments and they failed. But yeah the directions state you can not apply permethrin creams from above the neck up and they can not be used by children and pregnant women. The box also states that it may kill scabies in one application because in most cases it does not kill the scabies eggs so your not killing the scabies lifecycle. Just my experience with using it in the past and having no success, it actually made me sick for a week following it and more rashes and more itching then prior. Only use as a last resort if your desperate!
