Suggest Medication For Bite Marks On The Body Of All My Family Members

There are five adults in our household and every one of us has bites . They continue to multiply. We have been treated in the past for scabies and there was a cream that the Dr. prescribed that we put over our entire body from head to toe and it worked. We have washed all bedding, vacuumed and cleaned house well. Our family doctor has no availability until after the holiday and if we go to Urgent Care, it would be too expensive. Do you know the name of the cream to treat this?

Hello
It's called permethrin cream and it can be gotten over the counter in a strength that is lower than the prescription type.

If it isn't effective, you'll need to retreat with the prescription cream
