embarrassing

I caught lice from one of the girls I work with, not knowing I had it or even thought about it until she came to everyone an told us we needed to check our hair. Anyways, I'm afraid of using any kind of chemical, treatment, ect.
Is there anything that will not affect my baby? Very cautious about things like this. 36 weeks preg.
This is so embarrassing. But I needed other opinions.

Wash your hair with dog shampoo :) works great for kids too recommended to me by a pharmacist

If the lice treatment is not safe for pregnancy,  ive used hair dye to get rid of lice before. Find your same color and dye it normally like the box says then be sure to get a lice comb for the eggs and clean everything in your home.

There are natural shampoos you can use that have no chemicals, just essential oils like lavender and lemon grass. Soak your hair in olive oil or coconut oil. Put a shower cap on and let it soak in for about and hour. It will suffocate the bugs. Rinse it out and use the natural shampoo to treat and clean your hair.
You can make and mix of water, tea tree oil and lavender oil in a spray bottle. Sprinkle baking soda over all of your carpets and fabric furniture. Vacuum up all and then spray the water mix on everything. Make sure you wash all bedding and clothes. Spray your mattress.
