Permethrin 5% is the best thing you can use for scabies treatment. All tho it's an expensive cream i almost paid $50 for mine but will help kill the parasites. ADVICE: The first time you use the cream you will itch ALOT but don't wait another week to use the cream try to use it almost every other day and you will see how much better you'll feel!!!

About 2 weeks back I started getting these rashes on my hands. Itchy like all hell! First just figured it was a more typical rash and would go away, but it didn't! They're still here! So, I freaked out and threw my carpet and bed out thinking it was bedbugs. But, I was still itching, no matter where I went. Slept in a different house, got bit! Got a new bed, got bit! I went to the doctor just yesterday, she couldn't diagnose me with either bedbugs nor scabies. I knew more about both subjects that her! She gave me a cream for scabies. I'm still itchy though, but supposedly that's normal for the medicine. I won't know for weeks whether it actually works. I haven't found any bedbugs yet, but I've been searching like crazy. I know how well they hide, so I'm sooo paranoid that it might infact be them. I'm praying that it's scabies, so that way I can have a fighting chance against getting rid of them!

They love the warmth, so in that case all snuggly and warm will make you itch more. Go see your doctor and get the treatment. Usually one treatment is curable.

He was an emotional basket case. Itching can really make you a wreck.

This is sad and maybe there will be some health care reform to benefit contagious skin disease control.

I wonder if it's because it's contagious and they are concerned themselves about infestations.
