Basically a woman who comes to your house and for $40 an hour inspects and delouses the entire family and then gives you a checklist for the rest of the stuff. No chemicals and she is a miracle worker.

I've heard two or three people talking about their children over on this side of the country having lice in either their own kids or the kids' classroom.<br /><br />And let's not start talking about the number of folks we have who come into our building saying, "we have bedbugs".....Donna Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07877384848664758611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7038815217243908035.post-40168239178039512802012-11-11T16:03:02.611-08:002012-11-11T16:03:02.611-08:00And now my scalp itches.And now my scalp itches.roxiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14916948065233137971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7038815217243908035.post-80229762631687494612012-11-11T16:02:11.964-08:002012-11-11T16:02:11.964-08:00Oh, blessings on you all!

At least, when the squid says mean things about another kid (they all do sooner or later) you can remind her how bad she felt when people gave her a bad time about lice. Poor baby. And poor, poor you. Maybe you could drown 'em out with tequila applied internally.roxiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14916948065233137971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7038815217243908035.post-7882492759040124582012-11-11T10:15:24.396-08:002012-11-11T10:15:24.396-08:00UGH - I remember having to do that and it sucks.

My son got a makeover -- I let him choose the color -- and in addition to the cootie-killer stuff, turning him into a blond helped both his spirits and the bug death toll. Good luck to you and yours!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7038815217243908035.post-5539575208485758092012-11-11T07:38:13.945-08:002012-11-11T07:38:13.945-08:00So sorry.

"There's something crawling in my hair."<br /><br />Off we went to the 24 hour Walgreens. Another bomb blast of nit napalm (which isn't cheap, lemme tell you - at this point I'd spent close to $100 on three bottles!). Half a dozen crawling, not quite dead lice later, eight AM rolled around and I was on the phone to the egg donor - come get your kid and deal with the BUGS CRAWLING AROUND HER HEAD BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T DO IT THE FIRST TIME.<br /><br />So, I feel your pain.
