Earlier on at my house she took a bath because her house doesnt have running water and after she was done my mom went in the bathroom to take a shower and lice covered the bottom of the tub.so we sent her home and told her parents about it.After that my mom treated our whole family. Well then my pets got it so we treated them also.Now that we thought it was all gone and we were done dealing with lice , my mom keeps on getting bites all over her body same with me. Today my mom found a bug crawling on my head and hers but it did not look like lice . It was flat. Please Write Back ASAP!!!

Permethrin 1% lotion: Apply to hair after washing with shampoo; use a sufficient amount to saturate the hair and scalp; leave on hair for no longer than 10min, and then rinse with water and towel dry; if lice are observed within 7d after application, apply a second treatment; remove any remaining nits with the nit comb provided.(Thanks)
