First confirm the diagnosis of scabies as paedatric scabies has different picture than adults. Someone in your house must be having scabies for this transmission to happen. At one month of age, the only approved drug is colloidal sulphur (8% to 10%) in white vaseline to be applied for 3 continuous days with 12 hours gap. Nothing else is needed.
