Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
You can treat yourself at home with an insecticide cream, lotion or shampoo. They are available on prescription from your doctor, or you can buy them over the counter from your pharmacy. Please also wash all your clothes and beddings and disinfect it. The lice can remain in your bed and re infect you after you have completed your treatment.
