First of all, I`ve read the other comments on this site, and we all share a common problem. It suggests to me that maybe we simply have a level of sensitivity to microscopic parasites that not everyone experiences. I feel that I`m very clean about myself and my surroundings, yet I get the sensation of many tiny "bites" in my hair, eyebrows, face, and even eyelashes. This doesn`t happen on a daily basis, but rather when I`m exposed to fabric surfaces outside my home. I recently had dinner at a friend`s house, and began getting the familiar biting sensations while setting on an upholstered dining room chair. I went home, took a shower, and actually sprayed the cloths I`d worn that night with Ortho Home Defense bug spray! Am I crazy? I don`t think so. Would I love to get rid of my "gift" of sensitivity? You bet. There doesn`t seem to be any answers to the problem experienced by so many on this site, but at least we all now know there are other like us.

The one available in our country is by the company bioamla . but you can use any anti lice shampoo that is approved by medical persons . after you have started using the shampoo , you would be relieved from your tension with in a week at the most . usually the shampoo is required to be applied for 5 minutes , and then washed ,just follow the instructions and you would be just fine;.

That would be a no. It very well could kill some of the adults for various reasons but many would undoubtedly survive, and the tub would do little if anything to the eggs. Head lice can be most effectively removed with fine toothed comb and the special shampoos that are marketed as remedies specifically for head lice.

Did you try sleeping? It might be stress related which is wearing your body down. Alot like when your arm falls asleep. If that doesnt help, you may have a vitamin deficiency. Only a Doctor can diagnose that but try taking a super B complex vitamin.

 Someone said: Demodex is a mite that lives on every human scalp and body. Some people with immune problems ,hormone imbalance or an event that caused the scalp to be imbalanced can have an overgrowth of these microscopic mites and cause hair thinning,loss, breakage and sores that are often mistaken as pimples that wont go away. I have also heard that just having really extra dry scalp can cause that "feeling" of crawling on scalp. Try tea tree oil drops in your shampoo about 12 of them and shake and apply.
