    I could be wrong as it's been years since I've dealt with lice but cleaning and disinfecting your home will not kill them. The bedding, stuffies, pillows etc will need to be washed in hot water. I also think I remember being able to put things like that in garbage bags and keep outside in the winter for a week or two and that will kill off the lice? Bring back in and give a wash in hot water.

    Lice re-occurs usually because the hair is treated but the home isn't. It's a pain in the butt to do all the cleaning but it's needed. I would keep all extra bedding and stuffies away until the lice is gone for sure.
