6/7/2012 11:30:41 PM | Hello, this is the first time I post anywhere but from all the information on the net, this seems the most sensible. Like many of you, my problems started in March with a flea infestation as soon as me and my fiance moved from an apartment to an older house. We took care of the fleas right away but I always felt like something was crawling on my legs afterwards, right by the kitchen sink or in the bathroom. A month ago, I woke in the middle of the night with a trail of bites on the back of my knee. We moved the bed from our carpeted bedroom to the living room with hardwood floors. All of clothes are in plastic bins or bags. My symptoms are pin-prick biting, a few mosquito-like bites, and crawling on my lower legs. What is really getting me is the lack of good sleep because of crawling sensations at night on my face and feet. We have sprayed, bombed, cleaned to no avail. Went to the nurse at school and told me I don't have scabies. My fiance told me tonight he can't stand living like this anymore, he has gotten bit too, but I'm the one who really gets bothered. I'm tired, under much stress at graduate school, and do not know what to do. We live in South Texas, so it's really humid here. Our exterminator has found 'booklice' which are due to high humidity in the house even though we have our AC unit running 24/7. At this moment, I'm considering moving because I really don't want to deal with carpet. I feel it would be easier to clean all hardwood or tile floors. I don't want to live out of plastic bags. We will have to break our lease and lose close to $800. I think we have some sort of mite infestation, we spent a couple of nights at other friends' houses and I still had sensations and bites. That has led me to believe that I have to work on myself rather than trying to control everything around me. Much like an allergy. It's been over a month since this all started. I've got my laundry protocol down. I'm also using sulfur soap, rubbing coconut oil with essential oils on my skin, taking diatomaceous earth, apple cider vinegar, and magnesium. All of this has been helped, but I really want to stop it before it scales to something else. I have no other visible signs but a few mosquito-like bites. I really want to have my peaceful home and life back. My plan is to start the protocol ASAP, clean all our belongings, and maybe move to a more manageable environment. Thank you all for sharing. |
