Take them away from the house for the night after treating them. Get help treating them - even it if means that you have to pick out each egg yourself individually. Have someone watch the kids while you THOROUGHLY clean your house. If there is so much as one, small egg still in the house, they will get lice again. Then you will have to do this all over again. Just get that house as clean as possible - hire people to come in and help you if you can. And just get help from family or friends for cleaning the kids' heads. See if your doctor can prescribe something that works even better. And when all is said and done, wash those kids' sheets every single day. Good luck - I know it's no fun.

Good Luck, been there, Take Care

Try the Lice Meister comb. Also tumble dry the bedding EVERY day. I used rubbing alcohol on my daughter's hair to kill the lice. Just be careful to keep it out of eyes. I had tried Rid and another brand and they did not work at all.
