Oh and by the way, I'm not sure about decting them without sight, 
you can't
really feel them I don't think, they're so small, the eggs and 
the bugs, I
bought a comb that was supposed to zap at the detection of at 
least live
lice but it zapped all the time, even when not in hair.  So with 
me I guess
I never found a way to do it without sight.  I just used my 
daughter and
when we'd comb through her hair I'd ask her to look through the 
comb, I
can't remember how old your daughter is if this will work or not.

Did you pick her up from daycare?  If so, then the daycare needs 
to be
notified as well as all the parents.  Unfortunately, they spread 
like
wildfire.  Nits used to be thought to have come from unkept or 
unclean hair
but over the years it has been found that that is not the case.  
They just
are, like ants, they just seem to appear and hopefully you will 
find the
cause of them soon.  It might be  that you get rid of them and 
then your
baby picks up that certain toy and wala, back again.  That is 
what happened
with my friends kids.  She thought they were gone and then in a 
day or 2
they were back and come to find out, they were in the mattress 
and on the
headrest in the car.  So she just kept getting them again and 
again.  When
they finally sprayed those items, the lice went away.
I am not much for chemicals, but in this case, chemicals is what 
you need.

My oldest got it the first time at a winter camp.  I got rid of 
them fast
cleened, shampued and did all of what I am doing now and it 
worked.  But
this time its not and I just picked up the baby and she has nits.  
I can't
aford to take them to this place to have them treated so I'm 
stuck fixing it
myseolf.

But I don't know what elce to try.  I spoke with their docter and 
she just
told me to treat them again.  So I have gotten no answers except 
that at
some point they'll die.

 Make sure EVERYTHING is getting cleaned as well, sheets, 
blankets,
 stuffed
 animals, pillows brushes, combs, etc...
 Lice have been mutating and a lot of the commercial products do 
not work.
 Doctors still tell people to use them, because it does work in 
some
 cases.
 1/4 cup of each mayo, rubbing alcohol, peroxide, and Listerine 
mouthwash.
 Coat hair and cover with a shower cap or plastic bag tied tight.
 Leave on for a few hours.
 Comb out with a nit comb, combing in all directions.
 Rinse well with dish soap.
 Apply leave in conditioner.

 OK, I am about to rip my own hair out.  My lovly children with 
their long
 hair had lice.  I treated Tiffany quickly with organic products 
and dog
 shampue.  So she is back to school.  Ash is more of a chalenge.  
They
 won't
 die.  I have tried vinnager, olive ooil with t-tree oil, dog 
shampue,
 rid,
 and this cream rince my docter recamended that was going take 
care of the
 ishue.  Well, the dam things arn't dead and I had to make an 
apointment
 at
 one of those places that prommises they can kill them for like 
$148 to
 start
 but could be more.  I nead something to kill them before morning 
so lets
 hear what you got.  I'll try anything at this point and even 
bought nair
 for
 if they just won't die.
