What Causes Scabies In The Vaginal Area And Buttocks?

I ve been to the GP several times after having a few of the scabies symptoms and they have examined me and being dismissive as it is only around my vulva and buttocks. also, i did notice my ex partner was scratching around similar areas but it didn t seem evident that he had the spotty kind of leigons that have a weird kind of tiny black mark in them when they shed or peel - have I got scabies??
