Reptile relief is garbage and it won't get rid of the mites completely like PAM will.

Did you soak your snake in mineral oil? That is what it sounds like. That would explain why the scales are sloughing off like that.

You don't have to soak your snake in anything special to drown the mites on the snakes body. Plain old water and a drop or two of dawn dish soap will do the trick. But PAM (not to be confused with the cooking spray) is the only way to get rid of them for good and be done with it.
Besides saying its garbage do you have anything to back up this claim, facts maybe? Here is the product description from the website, is there anything on the description that your saying is inaccurate?

The Science of Reptile Relief-
The active ingredients in De Flea products work together to soften the waxy exoskeleton of fleas, ticks, lice, mites and other insects. Once the insect's armor has been penetrated, its internal organs are saturated and the insect quickly bursts. De Flea products work for all stages of an insect's life cycle: eggs, larvae, pupae and adult - effectively eliminating all mites and eggs from the cage on contact.
