My daughter aged 9 has has headlice since last July and they continually come back. Initially it was every 4-6 weeks but now Hedrin doesn't seem to work. I've tried another lotion too that had good reviews but didn't work even bought an after lice spray but 3 days after her last treatment they are back!! Phoned GP who have been useless. Can anyone please please help?

Hi It is best to comb them out using a fine headline comb you can buy from shops. Use a white blanket to cover her back then comb out the headline out of her hair. Do this daily until you don't see any out when you use the comb. But if she has eggs left in the hair then keep repeating the combing as they can still hatch in her hair and become big lice. Keep repeating this until they finish. Kill the big lice that come out of the hair by using a piece of paper to crush them in. Hope this helps.
