It's also important to figure out where you're got it,  so you don't get reinfected right away.

Check the boyfriend's brother's hair for lice,  and your boyfriend might also want to treat himself.  Clean your brushes,  and headrest in the car.

Definitely tea tree oil!! We would mix it with our conditioner and sleep with it in our hair at night.

My daughter had it and I called my obgyn to make sure I could use Nix or something otc and she said No. I needed an Rx because of the chemicals. I never had to use it but just in case. Call Dr to be sure.

Tea tree oil from Walmart and drench your hair in it wrap it up in a shower cap or plastic bag let sit for 2-3 hours and then rinse shampoo and condition like normal and as conditioner is in your hair run a lice comb through your hair and launder all beddings in the hottest water possible once with just vinager then a second time with normal laundry soap.. Good luck and I hope it helps fyi the tea tree is perfectly safe for u and won't harm baby or ur self unless u get it in ur eyes lol
