scabies mites

this is a new topic for us so any advice would be great.  looks like my dog picked these up and now a few of us are exhibiting symptoms as well.  I have been trying many different remedies over the past few weeks and just came across one on Earth Clinic that has many reviews of working on dogs, borax and hydrogen peroxide deal. I'm going to try it for us as well.  Would love some upbeat positive stories of being on the other side of this.

Kimberly, welcome to the forum!

Please let us know if the borax and hydrogen peroxide worked for you.

Aso DE Diatomaceous Earth would probably work.

A recipe from the above link:

I would also take a garlic drink daily for a month as the garlic is offensive to many parasites and may help drive them out of the skin or help keep them from entering the skin, regardless, it is an extremely healthy drink and a maintenance of 1-2 days a week works wonders for supporting health and is very inexpensive. The drink directions are: To a blender add 1 – 2 cloves of peeled garlic, 4-6 oz juice (e.g. V8, tomato, etc., not from a can), can also add any liquids currently taking as well as some sea salt and cayenne), 1 TBL cold pressed organic oil such as olive or sunflower etc., or 1 - 2 teaspoons of vegetable based oil and 1 teaspoon of cold pressed Castor Oil, blend to liquefy, add 2 – 4 more oz.  juice, blend and drink in AM on an empty stomach. Opt: can also add ¼ - ½ teas powdered ginger.
