Mites that causes scabies multiply at a fast rate and lay eggs beneath skin in burrows. So, even if all adult mites die their eggs still survive the effect of medicine. So, you need to repeat the medicine till your symptoms go away.

Hi, scabies is caused by sarcoptes scabei. Those mites will penetrate your skin and create burrows, live and lay eggs there as well. Its hard to kill them unless you maintain the contact time with the lotion for the prescribed time so that the lotion can percolate into the burrows. You need a repeat application as well. That is why she might have said they live in your body (skin). Calapure lotion will not kill them. It is just calamine, which will moisturize the skin. What you need is another lotion which kills the mites. If you have any more doubts, feel free to chat with me. My code is hs3990. Stay safe.
