The dude's been marveling over DFW's syllabi also.

My coworker, whose kids got it, went for the full nuclear:
full body shaving. No hair: no lice. His girl was in high school and thought it was kind of cool to be bald. But I understand that isn't a viable solution for a lot of people. I'd probably balk.

Emily had lice when she was 3, and gave it to me. Joe and Matthew were spared. We, too, had to go through a few levels of treatment, finally getting the prescription, which worked. Honestly, I think extremely rigorous combing several times a day under a bright light was the best method.

Oh, and I think the prescription we had was for Lindane. Which came with beaucoup warnings. So, yeah, I neuro-toxined myself and my daughter.

I love the Dr Nerdlove link, I totally lost track of time over there. I don't know how you find this stuff...
