*raises hand*

Been there too! When I was younger we got it from a household I was babysitting, treated and where reinfected twice, as well as infected a visiting family till we figured out where the source was coming from. We never cut our hair down I probably would have freaked over that, but I remember sitting with the burning, nasty shampoos, spending hours with the lice comb, washing anything and everything in the hottest water possible, replacing all the hair brushes and hair bands. Bombing the house once or twice.

Its definitely an ordeal and I remember my parents being embarrassed about it too. We were home schooled at the time, but whenever we went out it was understood we werent to pick at our heads as much as possible.

Now I dont think our dogs ever got it because I dont remember treating them, but I do know that one <just once but thats certainly enough for the family trying to combat an infestation> we did have a golden come into the groom shop just swarming with lice. So while its unlikely, check those furred pets too just incase!
