    I shaved my head once- my elder girls shared lice with friends all through school. What I found worked best for us was the Robi lice comb, but it's expensive and we had one that just quit working and needed to be replaced. I like the protective spray.. just might buy some of that as we are moving back into town to a higher population in the school.

    My daughter had these years ago when she was very young..I'll never forget the horror of going into her room as she was sleeping, turning on the light, and seeing them walking on her forehead. While my friend, who's daughter also had them...tore apart the house and did all kinds of cleaning, believe it or not, after thoroughly combing and getting rid of the creatures, I just used some skin so soft from avon across her forhead at the hairline and all the away around along the hairline on her skin, and a little in her hair. Then washed it out the next day. Washed the bedding really well and sprayed very light mist of SSS on her bedding (I forget what we used then)...did the skin so soft for another couple nights and never had a problem after that. I made this up as I went along, to tell you the truth, because I know SSS repells bugs.

    By the way, I'm blessing this lens and adding it to http://www.squidoo.com/nutrition-angel

    My daughter got headlice from school, and I thought I was going to die!!! I put baby-oil in the hair, and then went through it several times with that nitty comb. She has waist-long, thick hair -what an ordeal! But it worked, most importantly.
