While professional lice removal can cost a significant amount of money, many parents are happy to hire a professional simply because getting rid of lice on your own can be time-consuming and stressful. The professional services can draw on their experience, knowledge and standardized procedures to conquer the lice more quickly. Make sure you understand the pricing and policies of the service provider before you book an appointment. Here are a few questions to ask when choosing a provider: - Do you use a product to treat head lice before removing them? If so, how does the product work?
- Is the product toxic to humans, at any dosage? What are the risks and potential side effects of using this product? Do you test first for a potential allergic reaction to the product?
- What is the success rate of your service? (What proportion of your clients remain lfree of lice for two months after treatment?)
- What sort of a guarantee do you provide to your clients?
- What follow-up procedures will I need to complete at home? (Housecleaning? Further hair treatment? …)
- What are your recommendations on how to prevent a repeat lice infestation?
Contact us using the form at the bottom of this page, if you know of a head lice removal company or service that should be added to this directory.

WHAT TO DORead "How To Treat" and "Removing Nits" before combing, to get it right the first time.
But here's a jump-start:
Either hire professionals, or
get the stuff the pros use:I had mine shipped overnight. But nowadays you can probably find the Terminator comb at your local drugstore.
And if you're in a major city, you might be able to find enzyme shampoo as well. Check the "What To Do" page for info on where to find enzyme shampoo in retail stores.
Don't worry! Getting rid of lice is not hard, just painstaking. Do it right the first time.
Once you've ordered your stuff (or sent your husband out to buy it :-)), start by reading this page on how to treat head lice.
Before you start combing, read how to remove nits, completely.
