Years ago we had a family in my daycare who brought lice to everyone. It was a complete nightmare. Yes, the lice can and most likely are resistant to the OTC meds and they are quite toxic to use over and over again.
I can not recommend strongly enough a good nit comb, natural lighting and COMB COMB and COMB some more. If you miss the nits you start the whole cycle over again.
Seriously.. if you are at the point where you think you couldn't possible comb another second.. do it again.
We sat the kids in front of a movie, and combed and combed and combed. Their parents did nothing (long story ... but trust me.. it was awful).
The extensive and painstaking combing rid everyone of it. Of course wash everything and follow the usual instructions.. but in case I didn't mention it..
COMB out those nits.
It really is tiresome and hard on everyone but you need to be sure.
Good luck to you
