The treatment of pubic lice usually involves several steps. First, shave the pubic hair as lice and eggs are often attached to hair. Use medicated shampoos or lotions specifically designed to kill lice, such as permethrin cream. Wash all bedding, clothing, and towels in hot water and dry them on high heat to kill any remaining lice or eggs. Avoid sexual contact until the treatment is complete and both partners are cured. If the infestation is severe or doesn't respond to over-the-counter treatments, consult a doctor who may prescribe stronger medications. ????
