Just applied the Dermisil lotion to my son (5 1/2) tonight and there is a strong sulphuric smell. I guess I shouldn't be surprised since I knew that the product contains sulfur and that's what helps rid your body of the scabies. Just wondering how long the smell lasts and if there is anything I can do to lessen it, so that he doesn't have to go to school smelling like that. Also, I'd like to use the products too (to make sure I don't contact it from him, and to be able to cuddle, hug and kiss him without fear), however I work in a cafeteria during the day and am a server at a high-end restaurant at night and really can't smell like that at all. Any and all help and advice is appreciated. Thanks.

I agree! The sulfur creams and soaps smell like a light lime fragarence which will go undetected as it smells kinda nice! I would apply the sulfur creams full body overnight and shower with the sulfur soaps in the morning and maybe follow it up with a body wash like suggested above. This should work fine! If you were using tea tree oil that is another story as that stuff you can smell from a mile away and it is not a pleasant smell! Keep in mind tea tree oil does not work for scabies anyways!
