What can I do to help my mom cope with

[Patty W]

scabies?Please help me help her!? My mom has had scabies for 3 months now. She's done eveything!!! She's a clean person and has treated her home including dressers washed down with hot bleach water. She's treating her dogs several times a month. Basically shes exhausted every option in getting rid of them. Somehow she is getting reinfected or perhaps the treatments arent working. She has scrubbed her entire home and washed everything in hot. Shes used the cream several times and was even given a pill from the doctor. She's flipping out. She is really suffering more mentally than physically. Please.. any tips or info at this point would be great. Can you get scabies from the woods? She believes it could be coming from her dogs and lives in a heavily wooded area. I can not find anything to back that up. Is it possible? PLEASE HELP ME HELP HER! She calls me crying all the time. I feel so bad!

I was always told you could not get them from dogs. I would suggest washing all her clothes, carpets, furniture, bedding, etc. On top of that she should treat herself. If this is not working I would see her doctor again, maybe it is something else.
