[quote=Anonymous]I'm the 4 dose pp.

You don't have to vacuum, mop, etc each day.  Just the day you take the first dose and the day you take the second dose.  I did laundry each day.  It's a lot to get used to at first, but then it just became routine.

My kid got it last spring and my guess as to why it took so long to get rid of is that he kept getting re-infected at school.  The symptoms would go away and then come back.  This continued until school let out.  On the last day, we all took the last dose and never had the problem again.

When I say hard to get rid of, I'd say that with regards to myself.  The medicine didn't work well on me because I have a tendency to get constipated.  With the Pin-X the worms are just paralyzed and you have to get them out of your system before they "wake up".  Going the route of suppositories and laxatives was necessary for me.   But that doesn't sound like an issue for you, so don't stress about it.

It's a pain for sure but sounds like your doing all the right things and they will go away.  GL!
