Greetings. the following will help you : 1. See a qualified deramtologist near you - you'll need an anti-ectoparasite - scabicidal solution for over night application and washing off the next day morning 2. Wash all bedding linen/ clothing - preferably in warm water 3. Treat your close contact/partner too or else the infection will keep recurring. Hope this helps. Further queries can be sent on follow up messaging. Warm regards.
