[quote=Anonymous]My DD had it when she was 3 years old. We had to get a prescription pesticide cream that we applied to her body and kept on overnight. We had to wash it off in the morning. Afterwards, she was no longer contagious. We had to wash all her bedding and clothes in hot water. We also had to put teddy bears and other plush items that were not washable in a sealed plastic bag and away from her for a number of days until the scabies died. They can't survive away from humans, so they die on their own on those items. Check for a rash with lines connecting the dots. Take her to the ped if you see the rash. If she gets the pesticide cream, she should be okay to be with the cousins for the weekend. Our DD got this the day before her baby sister was born, and we were fine bringing the baby home after the scabies outbreak, so your weekend with the cousins should be fine.[/quote]
