[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, if you have three kids and they keep getting it it's probably them passing it among each other, not someone outside the family. You say in your responses that you are not getting out every not on the one kid. That is our issue. I would take her to lice clinics of America and watch closely how they comb. This has nothing to do w how clean your house and hair is. We have had it a couple of times and do the following:

- my DD wears her hair back every single day. I go for braids or buns. No hair hanging around her face. I said no to curtain bangs.

- at least one weekend a month I do the full treatment. Once a week, I do a comb out. If I find anything (haven't since this regime), off to the pros. Lice clinics of America is worth every penny.

- I am in her hair often because of the above so the two times she had it, I caught it super early and no one else in the family had it.

- this is a big one -- I immediately told the people we see often and they got their kids checked so it is on everyone's radar.

This is a big time to get it as everyone is coming back from camps, vacations, etc. all it takes is one loose transmitted via a hug! It is rampant in public school and camps. [/quote]

If it didn’t show up all summer, but has now that they are back at school, the source is most likely a classmate at school. [/quote]
