And head lice is not a dirty thing. The nasty little things are more attracted to clean hair bc they can move around easier. Ita not your fault just treat her hair amd the house and all will be fine. RIT is I believe is one of the better products out there.

Scratch scratch. Scratch. Your head is feeling really itchy. Could it be lice?If so, you're not alone. Every year, between 6 and 12 million people worldwide get head lice. Most of those millions are kids. Any kid who goes to school has probably already heard about lice. They can spread easily at schools, so if one kid gets them, the rest of the class might get them, too. What can you do? Let's find out.



Saying Goodbye to Lice

If your head feels very itchy, tell an adult as soon as possible. This is especiallytrue if you know that other kids in your class or school have had lice. Don't wait around — the more time the lice have to lay nits, the itchier you will be!Often a parent or school nurse can recognize head lice just by looking for nits in the hair. Some kids' parents will take them to the doctor so the doctor can check to see if lice are there.If a kid has lice, an adult will need to buy a special medicated shampoo, cream, or lotion that kills lice. An adult will need to apply the medicine and follow the directions. Part of the treatment is combing your hair with a fine-tooth comb to remove the nits. The shampoo, cream, or lotion usually kills the lice right away. The itching should go away within a few days, but treatment may need to be repeated in 7 to 10 days to kill any new lice that may have hatched since the first treatment.Do not use a hair dryer on your hair after washing with the medicated shampoo, lotion, or cream because they can contain flammable ingredients. You don't want your hair catching on fire.Although lice can live for only 1 to 2 days off a person's head, it's a good idea for an adult to wash all your bedding, hats, clothing, and stuffed animals in hot water. Or he or she can seal these things in airtight bags for 10 days. That also will kill the lice and their eggs.Vacuuming the carpets, upholstery, and car seats will take care of any lice that fell off before treatment. Combs, brushes, and hair accessories need to be soaked in hot water, washed with medicated shampoo, or thrown away. Sometimes it is difficult to get rid of the lice, so if that happens to you, have your parent talk to the doctor. There are stronger medicines and other treatments that they may decide to use.

They have RIT lice kits at pharmacies or any store and it works. That happened to my niece she was the only one in the house that got then and there was no other kids around the neighborhood that she would play with except the school kids. There's cheaper version for the rit lice kit and they work too.
