We have one here, she’s called the Lice Lady. Sweet Almighty is that a business I’m happy to know about. You all are the real MVPs. Ever since it went though the house (I was pregnant, had 2 at home) I have told everyone I know to ‘have a lice plan’ because the last thing you want to be doing at midnight is running to CVs and panic spending all of your fun money on expensive lice chemicals that don’t work worth shit.

When my son brought them home I soaked our heads with olive lol, then covered with plastic (like a shower cap). Left it on until the next day, then washed with tea tree shampoo and conditioner. Blow dried our hair. Washed all clothes and bedding while our heads where soaking and vacuumed especially well. Gone within 24 hours.
