I checked her friends heads again yesterday and killed a few big ones again. The Robi comb zapped 3 on one girl, and 1 on another friend. And there are eggs. It's been about 2 weeks since the last time I checked them and it looks like they're back. Both girls used RID and thought they had gotten rid of everything. We'll have to make sure we Robi comb them whenever they come visiting.
On the upside, my daughter and her good friend (who hangs out with her at our house almost every afternoon) have no more bugs on their heads. I've been regularly combing through their hair for the past couple weeks and haven't zapped any on them for several weeks. So I believe that the comb used in combination with the repellent spray I made is working.
Here is an excellent resource on head lice. Much mahalo to Keely for providing this info. If you're dealing with them, it will help you banish those buggies once and for all.
I'd like to add the Robi comb to that arsenal. I think it's the best way to be sure they are gone AFTER the treatments are done, and in between treatments. Some of those buggers actually survive the pesticides... and I'd hate for them to spread to other family members.
