Bad to use a second treatment of lice shampoo before 7-10 days

The directions say you must apply a second treatment 7-10 days after the initial treatment. I really want to make sure my lice is gone, I want to leave my house. Is it alright if I go ahead and use the treatment before the 7 day mark as long as I make sure I pick out all the nits?Bad to use a second treatment of lice shampoo before 7-10 days
Andreww,





You should be cautious inusing it a second time inside of 7 days for a couple of reasons. First, you do a second treatment because the manufacturer knows that it does not kill the eggs and that their comb will not get all of the eggs out. Second reason is that the chemicals are quite harsh and your body needs time to flush them out since they will be absorbed through your scalp. Not sure what is in the one that you used but do a search on Lindane (which is in some of them) and you will see why we favour chemical free treatments like NitFree and others.





Maybe consider getting one of the NitFree combs to check and see if you actually did get all of the nits.





Good luck. Bad to use a second treatment of lice shampoo before 7-10 days
It's fine my little bro had that problem and my mom put the shampoo on him constantly and it did help it go away. Make sure you wash your clothes and spray your furniture!!!
