Head lice is gone

Our 7 year-old daughter got headlice. We used only essential oils and a fine toothed lice comb to treat it. We treated her head 3 times a day for 3 days and then went down to 2 times a day for another 3 days. After the first 3 days all live bugs were gone, after the 4th day of treating no more eggs were seen!!! We still vacuumed, and put her bedding and coats on high heat for 20 min every day for a week. We sprayed car seats and furniture and beds with lavender oil (about 10 drops in 4 ounces). We checked heads through the second week and the lice was indeed gone!

4 drops eucalyptus
2 drops lavender
2 drops geranium
1 tsp V-6

We massaged this into the scalp and left for 30 minutes or more. Then shampooed with YLO Lavender shampoo. And then applied the rinse, making sure to get all of hair with it. Then let dry naturally.

2 drops ecualyptus
2 drops lavender
2 drops geranium
1/2 oz apple cider vinegar
8 oz warm water

I did not have all of the oils on hand when I first discovered the head lice, so we also used lemon, pine, and rosemary several times as well.
