I feel your pain.
I have something like what you explain. Try Dr. Singha's mustard bath but mix it in a light paste and put all over your body. it's gunna have a burning sensation. leave on for an hour or how ever long you can handle it. also put it in a bath but at a much higher amount then stated on instructions. I have been down the path- ivermectin internal an so. I have tried almost everything. I stumbled across this mustard bath and I used it directly on my skin and to my amazement it just didn't help but I feel it is ending the hell I've been in for a year and a half. Anyway I hope this helps you.

get yor doctor to give you SULPURTRIM.i am allergic to it however the first time i took it even tho i had a fever the buggies went away.this is with one pill.i was given 90.pills!!!if he doesnt then respond to me and i will give you some,just respond to coocookitty

oh it is sulphurtrim woops spelt wrong.anyways buggies went away i spent so much time cleaning,not eating properlythat i started to see things and convinced myself i nhad morgellons,anyways,healing up now, cant hurt to take aphalpha pill and clorox(1 cup) warm bath.not hot.and the invermectin for horses is also good but, they have the equivalent for humans, that is if your doc doesnt think you r coocoo.dont bring samples with you either, drs see this as a sign of parasitosis or that u r delusional.just sayin.matchbox crazies.....people used to bring their samples in matchboxes long ago.and the drs wouldnt even look at them, how do they know where u got them from??just show them the lines and craters,scabs whatever you have got.and if he is a dumbass ask if u can see a real dr.

Scabies SUCK! I had them when I was about 15, contracted them from sleeping in my friend's bed who also had them. Unfortunately I had no idea what they were and it kept getting worse and worse until my whole body/neck/everything was covered. finally I went to the dr and he perscribed Nix cream ( there is a Nix for lice, and one for scabies.) I did 2 treatments in 1 week and it went away!! I had another occurence last october but it didnt seem to be the same thing, there was nothing on my hands, just my arms. A different dr perscribed Nix again, which did nothing. I later discovered it was BEDBUGS OMFG. After moving, throwing out the furniture, clothing, all that stuff, it seemed to be gone. NOW after a visit from my sister, my 7-month old daughter and I have itchy white bumps on our hands and wrists. I figure it's scabies again, especially because the person my sister rents a room from lives in a filthy house with literally 10 cats, which i am now aware can spread these disgusting mites. Anyway, I noticed nobody suggested Nix, which worked like a charm for me. I just don't know what I'm going to do for my poor little daughter :(

nix is permetherin,just has different names from different companies,nix is expensive while if you ask (in canada)for something same but cheaper they will find it for u-lindane was@8 they say it is dangerous but to who????my idea is that they are trying to sell more expensive products,and say cheaper ones are dangerous.not so.

<quoted text>I was taking 50mg at night, this allowed me to sleep. I only did the capsules, not the tabs or get, as long as you take enough you might be able to sleep through the night.

i thought the2 25mg worked well,not the gel caps tho.i just took the regular pink pills.

Is there a shot that will kill scabies

Ive had scabies since july ive tried everthing permathal cream sulfer soap hot baths anx bleach baths nothing works i even used vicks on my arms it just got hot then cold theres no end to it they r just in my arms thank god they aient anywhere else

I sprinkled borax all over my carpets and furniture and it seems like i am having some better days. I too wonder about my cat. I think she is sleeping on my bed and bringing mites with her to the blankets. I do not have extra money to kennel her so i don't know what to do. Is it really true that they can carry them around? I am also drinking diotomacious earth food grade. It seems that the mites have stopped useing me as a host. My main problem is trying to keep the house clean. Helpppp

Ans just a little added advice take a piece of micro fiber towl and cut it and cover the filter hole on your vacume cleaner. Because every time u vacume u are recirulating bugs. And spray clorox cleanup all over your toilet. Think about the amount of time you spen sitting on the throne. Especially the hinges on the seat lid. I was getting bit. Especially on my crack. And now its better. Also i have an electronic game with buttons on it and i was getting bit on my fingers. I washed that game with rubbing alchol. Big improvement there. And my computer desk. The middle drawer had papers in it. Well it too got infected. So i sprinkeled Borax in it. Im hittin the hot spots. Im gonna beat this thing. These bugs even like paper to hide in. And fabric and nkw i am steaming my furniture too with great results. But my cat help I cant put her in the microwave. We Ll know that wont work out. Ok just kidding. Gotta keep a little laughter goin. Some how. Helppppp!!!

I am sitting with my dog's flea & tick shampoo rubbed all over my body for 24hours now. Got a good nites sleep last night. Fixing to wash it off and see if that hasn't helped

Omg finally lol I got that desperate too! I think I got scabies from my dog with mange. I been treating him and myself with little success. I finally used his flea/tick shampoo all over including my scalp. Now I know it may be dangerous or what ever the f*** but at this point that was a risk I was willing to take.
Got tons of initial relief but I've been up all night again over those motherfers!!!!

Okay, call me crazy but the scabies killer stuff I ordered seems to be working. I've been using it for 4 days and almost all my bumps and itching has gone away, without ANY permethrin. My skin feels a lot better than when I was slathering on permethrin too. That stuff caused an itchy rash itself. I'm not sure what's in the stuff, there's an enzyme spray that smells like vinegar... Then an oil rub that has tea tree, neem, coconut, and a bunch of other oils in it. It smells pretty strong. I can not WAIT to smell normal again. For the last 3 months I've smelled like gold bond, all kinds of minty crap from shampoo and soaps, borax, bleach (yes I got desperate and took a couple dreaded bleach baths - didn't help, just stung my skin and stunk) I just want to put on some nice scented lotion that's not made to kill bugs again.
Hopefully this stuff keeps working. My daughter is nearly cleared up too. I'm delighted that my legs don't look like I have chicken pox anymore. I was afraid I was going to have to wear pants all summer.

I was wondering if you managed to get rid of your scabies problem? Is your daughter cured? If so i am in desperate need of your cure. Holidays are fast approaching and company will be coming to visit so I really must rid the family and my home of these little critters.

Be careful, I've heard of people getting leukemia from the creams for scabies. Don't overuse it. I know what you mean though. I've had this crap for 7 years this time around.

I've had scabies since last August. I have used Premetrin topical cream at least once a week, sometimes even 2-3 times per week. At first, it seemed to help, but it has never gone away. I am so frustrated, I just want them gone and I can't get rid of them. I just had another huge outbreak this past two weeks with new bites everywhere. I wash everything I touch with hot water everyday. I take showers twice a day with neem soap, neem shampoo and then wash shampoo with tree tea shampoo. I have bathed with neem oil. I vacumn floors, furniture, my bed, everything I touch. I scrub the bathrooms and kitchen, mop the hardword floors, and have had the furniture cleaned. I dry my pillow in the dryer everyday for at least 20 minutes. My house has never been so clean. What else can I do, somebody please give me some advice. Where can I get Ivermectin? Do I have to drive to Mexico? How do I use the borax. How many garlic and Vitamin B pills do I take? Thanks for any help you can give me.

dont be afraid .it does get Better .i am finally normal (well whatever normal is) but it does take a long time to get rid of these buggies.tea tree nope,neem oil nope,just be vigilant in your cleaning. that means spraying lysol(on computer and mouse too,telephone,Weaqr something new everyday and bag up your old clothes and tie tightly.try to not sleep on bed even if u have a cover, only do this after a few weeks(and it has to be waterproof cover.superstore or zellers or good sales at the bay and sears you can get pillow coverings 2 for $6and entire bed not just a cover * i forgot to mention)$14.i was prescribed menthol and cortisone mixed together,which really eased the itch and here in canada you can buy over the counter permethrin cream,so i did 1 nix for scabies(whole bottle.behind ears,around butt(yes)there too.under fingernails,better yet chop nails off.and scrub them regularly.it says not to use on face so i did it anyways,i could feel them on my ears scalp,so i rubbed it on face with tips of fingers got scalp,just wash this areas earlier than 14 hours,maybe 6 hours should do.do not put near eyes,just close and not in nose or mouth..k.i used colada once.permethrin but cheaper.and used nix 2 times more 5 days apart,after the treatment i felt like a slug,slow,brain fog,stupid,so do it on a non work day.just stay in bed,being slow slows down the activity of the mites.bag your couch with garbage bagsvacuum a lot and wash vacuum.well.DO NOT PICK AT THE SCABS>>>THIS WILL MAKE IT LAST FOREVER,UNTIL THEY ARE HEALED,NO POLYSPORIN OR CREAMY CRAP,JUust dry them out.and you can put itch cream on at night or day if it is too difficult to deal with.wash laundry at laundromat if u can and always at hottest temps.dry for at least 40 mins on hot to an hour. keep new bags to put clean clothes in and through out dirty bags.use a lot of common sense.dont go crazy cleaning,it wont help, just wrap things you sit on or buy painters tarp for floor.hope this note helps. i am finally free of these things,so they do go away,u just cannot be lazy about it.oh borax is your friend put on carpet before vacuum,sprinkle around,put in laundry,put in bottle and shake and spray things.good luck stay in there.

If we take the Ivermectin once a week for 4 weeks, geez.. shouldn't that break the lifecycle?
The cats just show no symptoms at all, no shedding or excess itching or patchy fur. Nothing.
I know for fact that I got Human Scabies first (January 2006) along with my sexual partner who got it from a known source.
What's funny is we notice more symptoms on our heads. Creepy crawly sensations of little things scurrying about from the head, eyelashes and hairline.
I currently don't have any lesions, or burrow trails. I have NEVER been able to find one in my microscope.

i dont want to scare you but that is what a lot of morgellons patients have said-like fleas zipping across their head,but they find nothing and also fatigue, maybe just look at symptoms,i hope you dont have this, but, i have just heard those words before same as eyelashes and even eyebrows,they pull out easily.

It isn't Morgellons. My optamologist says he sees eggs on my eye lashes and stuff. I see someone already judged you.

I'm putting together a website that is dedicated to curing scabies. I just bought all the ingredients I think will do it. Around $200 I will posting updates on my rss feed if you'd like to keep up on it. I've done a TON of research on it and been searching forums for a long time, like 5 years now or so. But I think I can beat it now. Curing your body is easy. The hardest part is keeping it off. The crappy part is, you can't make physical contact with people in your area that haven't been treated successfully. One touch from someone else that's infected or newly re-infected can re-infect you. Dogs, cats, friends, family, and especially your wife or husband... anyone, one person infected means thousands more infected. No money for me, just facts and the satisfaction of helping people: www.scabiesbeware.wordpress.com
