Everyone in your house needs to apply the medication & the clothes should be washed & set to dry in open sun for maximum effect.

Hi! usually, scabies is a skin disease which takes a longer time to get under control at least for 2 weeks. Continue a proper course to get relief .wash all your clothes ,bed linen in hot water and dry up in hot sun for better control. Use moisturising cream like nivea or simple coconut oil twice daily to prevent dryness.
