Greetings. She'll need a lotion based with permethrin that needs to be applied over the hair and scalp and rinsed after fifteen minutes. Treatment must be taken at the same time by ask family members to prevent spread and recurrence. See a qualified dermatologist near you for prescription. Warm regards.
