Any body have them or your kids??, does not look like fun for us the next few days. All I can do is itch and think of Rat Scabies the old drummer for the Dammed.

I had them - got from my wife who got them from a patient. Took me months to get rid of them.

Thanks LEB,

Went to the doctor and got the creme. Been washing clothes and bedding all evening, Just worried because my daughter still comes in and snuggles with mom and dad sometimes. She also crawls in bed with little brother to read to him. It creeps my wife out because she used to teach in a poor city where lots of kids had lice. We have been itching all night with just the thought of it.

I feel for you, good luck!



Years ago worked as a social worker in a foster family agency, the things I saw, creepy. Lice so common with clients, all us workers were constantly checking each others hair, oh and the scabies...WASH everything !!!!

I don't know if you have pets or not, but if you do, they will require treatment as well. Farm animals sleeping in the house (chickens and goats) are the usual carriers of scabies in Nepal.
