Ds1 has just been playing with a little boy this morning and his mother has just let us know she's discovered her son has nits and I'm sitting here scratching already.
Is there anything preventative I can do? I've been reading the past threads and see that tea tree oil shampoo is popular - can I use this on a 7 month old baby if I only use a small amount?
Thinking of just giving us all a hairwash with tea tree oil and a quick comb through with a nit comb (only own one though - is this likely to be a problem - should I send dh out for three more?!) - do you think we'll avoid the horror if we do that now?!
