I would think using a clothing hot iron on pillows and bed would help?

@SuperJadeelizabeth YOU HAVE TO PUT PLASTIC ON YOUR BED , BETWEEN U AND YOU MATTRESS. BE SURE AND DRY SHEETS IN A HOT DRYER FOR PORLONGED PERIOD! SCABIES WILL GET IN YOUR MATTRESS, SHOES, CAR SEATS ECT...... I HAD TO GO TO THE FARM SUPPLY STORE AND BUY SOME IVERMECTIN POUR ON AND PUT IT ON MY BODY AT NIGHT B4 I SHOERED, WHILE I DID THAT I PUT ALL MY CLOTHS I WORE IN THE HOT DRYER , PLUS MY SHOES. I FIND THAT THE EGGS WILL HATCH OUT LATER AND I CAN FEEL THEM WHEN THEY HATCH,

YOU ARE HIGHLY CONTAGIOUS WHEN INFE3CTED WITH THESE BUGS , SO STAY AWAY FROM PEOPLE. SCABIES IS EASILY TRANSMITTED!

YOU NEED TO DRY YOUR CLOTHS IN A "HOT" DRYER AND MAKE SURE YOUR SHOES ARE HEATED AS WELL! THESE BUGS WILL GET ON ANYTHING CLOTH. PUT PLASTIC ON YOUR BED , BETWEEN YOU AND YOUR MATTRESS, AND PLASTIC ON YOUR CAR SEAT, TO KEEP THEM FROM GETTING BACK ON YOU ONCE YOU HAVE KILLED THEM. IT TAKE SME ABOUT 3 MONTHS ALL TOTAL TO KILL THE MITES. THERES CERTAIN THINGS I DO TO KILL THEM AS FAST AS POSSIBLE! DRY CLOTHS IN A HOT DRYER FOR PORLONGED TIMES , PLUS MAKE SURE YOUR SHOES ARE HEATED AND DISINFECT

IT SEEMS TO ME, ONCE YOU KILL THE MATURE SCABIES MITES, YOU HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE EGGS TO HATCH OUT OF YOUR SKIN! THESE BASTARDS CAN BE HELL TO KILL!! HAHAHA YOU ARE HIGHLY CONTAGIOUS WHEN INFECTED WITH THE SCABIES MITES! THEY LAY EGGS IN YOUR SKIN AND THEY SUCK THE BLOOD OUT OF YOU!

I have to say that doctors are going to tell you to see your doctor and not try home remedies. They do this because it takes money away from them when you seek outside help. And to think of it, the prescription meds are worse than some of the home remedies I've read or heard about. I'm going to try Tea Tree Oil and see where that gets me. If it irritates my skin but gets rid of them I'll be happy.

I THINK THIS HAPPEN BECAUSE SOME PERSONS DO NOT CLEAN UP REALLY GOOD DOES BEDS AT THE HOSPITAL AUDUBON NORTON

if you have access to a hot tub,crank it all the way up.. sit in there for a while... the chemicals and the heat do a number on the bastards.
