Sunmark Lice Treatment Family Pack - 4 oz

Treats head lice. With a single application: kills lice and their eggs; prevents reinfestation for 14 days. Creme rinse with 2 nit removal combs.

Directions: Inspect: All household members should be checked by another person for lice and/or nits (eggs). Use a magnifying glass in bright light to help you see the lice and nits (eggs). Use a tool, such as a comb or two unsharpened pencils to lift and part the hair. Look for tiny nits near the scalp, beginning at the back of the neck and behind the ears. Small sections of hair (1-2 inches wide) should be examined at a time. Unlike dandruff, nits stick to the hair. Dandruff should move when lightly touched. If either lice or nits (eggs) are found, treat with Permethrin Lotion 1%. Treat: Wash hair with a shampoo without conditioner. Do not use a shampoo that contains a conditioner or a conditioner alone since this may decrease the activity of Permethrin Lotion 1%. Rinse with water. Towel dry hair so it is damp but not wet. Shake the bottle of Permethrin Lotion 1% well. Completely saturate the hair and scalp with Permethrin Lotion 1%. Begin to apply Permethrin Lotion 1% behind the ears and at the back of the neck. Keep Permethrin Lotion 1% out of the eyes. Protect the eyes with a washcloth or towel. Leave Permethrin Lotion 1% on the hair for 10 minutes, but no longer. Rinse with warm water. Towel dry hair and comb out tangles. If live lice are seen seven days or more after the first treatment, a second treatment should be given. Remove Lice/Nits: Remove nits by combing the hair with the special small tooth comb provided. Remaining nits may be removed by hand (using a throw-away glove), or cutting the nits out. Use the nit comb provided and make sure the hair remains slightly damp while removing nits. If the hair dries during combing, dampen it slightly with water. Part the hair into 4 sections. Work on one section at a time. Longer hair may take more time (1-2 hours). Start at
