So, after a lovely summer of headlice-free children, they're back at school again and completely riddled with them. I've had to de-louse dd's hair 4 times in 3 weeks. I know how to get rid of them effectively. The problem is that her class is alive with headlice so she's being constantly reinfected. The school send out the odd letter, but don't treat it as a problem.
Does anyone have any tips on how to handle this or how I could persuade the school to try and do more? Or if the local health authority could help with the problem? Scratching (literally) my head for ideas!
