What's this on the nitcomb?

We all had nits 2 weeks before school broke up. Despite nitty gritty + conditioner combing twice a day + every treatment on the market twice + tea tree everything, coconut oil, heat blasting, they lasted 5 weeks.

I think the main problem was me having long thick hair and no one to check my scalp even though I was combing root to tip.

Anyway the bastards are back on me and I could scream. I've only had 2 weeks without them. I would go and get all my hair chopped off but I know I can't go to a salon like this. I even put frontline on my head 3 days ago. Yes terrible but I'm desperate and it didn't even work!

Finally got someone to to reluctantly check me yesterday and they said nothing is there apart from dry flakes. I can FEEL crawling. So I've put neem oil on my head and this is on the comb. Are these empty egg sacs?

Looks like sacs :(

My first thought was eggs also.

Thanks for replying. I'm so so so over this but glad I'm not going mad with phantom crawling
