How Can Scabies Be Treated?
I recently was diagnosed with Scabies, I am in the process of cleaning a home that has been sitting for 15 years. I have done the treatment with the cream, steriods, benadryl from my doctor. Things cleared up. I was back at the home working again this weekend and they are back. How do I rid the home of them so I don t repeatedly get them.
