I've seen a lot of people posting here about having lice from time to time so I thought I'd share the method we used that really worked even on the medication-resistant variety of little fuckers we contracted. (Thanks to my ex-husband being a negligent fuck for this educational experience.)
The secret magic: Listerine. Plain old yellow Listerine that you can get cheap from any Dollar Store. If you have really thick hair, really long hair, or dreads you might want a friend to help. A spray bottle to put it in is also helpful.
Voila! This treatment worked amazingly for us and cost all of like $4.

- Just saturate the hell out of your hair with the Listerine until it's soaked. Make sure every single inch of hair and scalp is soaked.
- Then either use a shower cap or DIY it with tying a grocery bag around your head.
- If Listerine pools in the bag or shower cap work it back in every 15 minutes or so to keep the hair and scalp as consistently saturated as possible.
- Embrace the head-tingle.
- Leave it on for about three hours, then wash it out or the Listerine will leave your hair super sticky.
- Repeat once a week for three weeks as lice have about a 3-week hatching cycle.
- A lice comb it still handy to comb out the dead nits
