Bugs Crawling on you - Red Bumps and Bites but you can't see them! Everyone begins to think you are imagining them. Oh well - just get through this.
I have answers for your suffering! They will cost you very little and I am not selling anything. I'm only here to share what has worked for me so you can finally try something that makes sense and works.
To Start: PLEASE STOP USING CHEMICALS - THEY ARE KILLING YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. I tried them - they didn't work and I regret using them now. Use healthy things that really do work.
6/2015. UPDATE!! I KNOW WHAT MOST OF YOU HAVE. FOR MANY IT'S YOUR FILLINGS SLOWLY POISONING YOU!! SURPRISE ITS NOT IN YOUR HEAD AND ITS NOT BUGS.
SEE SEASON 1 segment 8 on "diagnose me" show.. IF YOU FEEL BUGS BUT HAVE NO BITES AND YOU HAVE FILLINGS...A DOCTOR DISCOVERED ITS A SLOW POISONING FROM MERCURY IN YOUR FILLINGS. TEST FOR MERCURY AND HE SAID TO REPLACE YOUR TOOTH FILLINGS. TELL YOUR DOCTOR TO TEST THE POSSIBILITY..
Ours turned out to be flying midges. Yes a fly. Not mites. If you've heard of "no see 'ems" that's what you see. Nothing. They bite. I had the fluttering in the nose and face. Crawling and biting at night. All of the below still works but focus on environment. Vacuuming and using fans helps! Diffuse cinnamon if you can.
We tore my bed apart and found this silk material on the footboard and alsoon top of an electrical outlet. We called in a bug guy and he tested and found out what they are. We were seeing a mass of fly babies as what looked like a ten inch silk. Unfortunately I had to discard my beautiful new bed. I couldn't get rid of them all. I found a tree grinder and pulverized the thing. It had felt like they were coming from the foot of the bed at night....and they were.
Previously:
I constantly had searched the internet looking for someone to come back with answers that would clear the bugs, the invisible microscopic crawling and skin bites or bumps.
I tried it all, ordered it all - thought about demodex and bird mites and every other thing that people talked about. I still don't know for sure what it is but my guess its an agressive scabies.
Other then my sister no one else caught it from me. It made me look like I was imagining things. But the tickle above my lip and in my nose and eventually across my cheek began to spread into what felt like several bugs crawling on my scalp. Then a very itchy scalp and eventually bumps. I began to have significant hair thinning and what looked like pink pimples that were tough. I couldn't scratch them off. I ended up with sores across the back of my head and this continuous feeling like something crawling on my head. Then I went to bed one night and it felt like there were gnats everywhere on my face. I thought how could this be happening? I can't see anything...what is this? I was horrified. Next was crawling. All over my body crawling particularly worse at night. Then I began to have spots showing up at the base of my spine, then moving upward on my spine, then moving outward across my back...then over my shoulders and under my arms around to my waist and front. I went to the doctor. She treated me for scabies with two doses of Ivermectin one week apart. It worked for about 3-4 days but then came back each time. She decided it was not scabies and began to treat me with other products which made the infestation explode.
At this point it was August and the beginning date was June...so 3 months at that point.
I tried many things - ordered creams - tried Coconut Oil, Clove Oil, Tea Tree Oil, Cedar Oil, Orange Oil, Clorox Baths, Borox Baths and application to my carpets and during wash. I distributed Food Grade Shell Flour (Diametrious Earth) by shaking it around on my carpet and washing the wood floors etc. Bagging clothing, removing plants, washing the carpets...I threw out so many things.
By now - December I was so miserable. Night time resulted in sometimes 3 showers a night. I There had to be answers. How do I find the answers. People would talk about what helped but nothing about a cure.
I finally found what worked for me and I will share it with you. I noticed some people become suicidal and I want to beg you to please hold on- this too will pass. And I prayed all night long.
I sensed in my heart the phrase I had heard in a song that stuck with me - was an impression from the Lord. "My way is not hidden from you." So I sought out to find His way since it was not hidden.
I gave up on everything starting over.
I decided to go back to what I had started to try previously and my sister said it had cleared hers.
I went back to the sulfur ointment. The product De La Cruz Sulfur for Acne - its a 10% sulfur mixture you can buy at Walmart (in the hispanic section) or you can purchase online at Walgreens: http://www.walgreens.com/store/c/de-la-cruz-sulfur-ointment-10-acne-medication-ointment/ID=prod2872361-product?ext=gooBeauty_PLA_Acne_Treatments_prod2872361_pla&adtype={adtype}&kpid=prod2872361&sst=3939a5aa-ccb4-4a29-1b0b-0000556e37e8
I used 1 jar per day....it took me awhile so I purchased quite a few online so I didn't have to run to all the Walmart's everywhere to try to find enough for a few more days. There are other sulfur products out there - but it must be this one because its a little scratchy.
These are the things you will have to buy: Sulfur Ointment (above), "Yes" grapefruit face wash cloths (also can find at Walmart or Walgreens).
Second, do your best to get off sugar. Sugar shuts down your immune system for up to 5 hours and you need your immune system to combat this. I believe that is why some people have systems that get rid of them before they are even aware of them and others, like us, get infested. I also found drinking Iced Tea was helpful for some reason.
I had quite a few bumps and so began to apply the sulfur cream. This is the recommendation by the Mayo Clinic to treat Scabies for small babies and pregnant women so it is a safe and effective method to treat this. I cut my finger and toe nails short as my understanding is they hide under your nails when you are applying products. The first night I took a shower using sulfur soap and sulfur shampoo. After drying off I used a toothbrush and applied the sulfur under and around my cut nails. I then began with my scalp - applying as if applying hair color to the roots. If I had short hair I would have been able to just glob it on but I have longer hair. I then moved down from my head to my toes.
There is an area on your back that no matter how hard you try you cannot reach it. The clear package from my new toothbrush actually worked quite well at applying to that upper back area that I could not reach. I added a faint yellow food dye so I could see where I was applying the first few times. I also added Clove Oil to the sulfer jar simply because it smelled nice and comforting.
Later I found a back scratcher with a flat surface on the back which I used for application. This product (I promise I'm not selling anything) or anything like it will work well. http://www.goodolddaysstore.com/detail.html?cat_id=3&prod_id=549
Stand on a towel because they drop off as you are applying it. Step off the towel and roll it inward and wash it with the towels you just used in the shower.
I found using tighter clothing was more comfortable then loose clothing when I was wearing the sulfur. As I said the sulfur is a little scratchy but seems to be an important component.
In the morning because I work in an office I showered with all sulfur products and applied the sulfur cream from the neck down including nails, eyebrows and just inside my nose. You can add a little peppermint oil or clove oil to the cream as it cuts down on the sulfur smell. I also found nylon socks worked better at keeping them off my legs at work then cotton ones.
I didn't do anything to the vinyl or wood floors. NOW IMPORTANT _ I stopped vacuuming.
I found that oils just caused the problem to get worse - I found dry products and the sulfur to work on their own.
I found I had to go for about 3 weeks to get rid of the burrows/bumps & sores wearing the sulfur night and day. The scratchy sulfur was very irritating on my bumps the first few nights but within a few nights I didn't notice it any longer when the sores started getting better. My sister was my encouragement to get through it because it was irritating enough for me to want to quit. I started to see improvements within 3 days - bumps getting smaller but they are hard to get rid of and it took awhile.
I continued using the sulfur in my eyebrows and nose.
Before bed I used the Yes Grapefruit wash cloths
Night 1. Normal
Night 2. Worse then ever
Night 3. About 1/4 of them - finally sleeping!
Night 4. Very few
Night 5. Gone
Wait a few days and do it again.
I continued this until I could go without feeling them. Eventually they were gone. I was on Thanksgiving break. I went back to work and then bam.
Placing a Sticky Mat under your desk at work - I found particularly helpful if you want to purchase it. http://www.americanfloormats.com/clean-room-sticky-mats/?gclid=CjkKEQjwqYacBRDO-Mrk6_vr8eQBEiQAWJadfKKJdoProStZZco9rz25BmOEqURzMA81OJ9mFFSpLDfw_wcB. They're expensive and not necessary but it did help.
The key is - as soon as you feel them - it is where they are. Make sure you have sulfur cream on there.
Christmas break and I was out of work for 11 days. I got rid of them the first night by using the sulfur cream and I was bug free for the entire break. I used athletes powder at work and it slowly went away there also.
Also, the last place - my lips for some reason I could find them there. I used the sulfur mixture around the edges of them and I had a small travel toothbrush that I used to treat that area.
All in all - the sulfur on my face made me look like I was 90 but after it began to heal my skin was beautiful. I took good care of my skin after I was done and it was better then ever. I began using coconut oil mixed with lavender on my skin and wow - brown spots and dried out skin looked amazingly better.
This is the simple key - let them get on you. Wearing the sulfur will kill them. Instead of washing & drying and changing sheets etc. just leave the sheets on. (Of course don't let anyone else in your bed til this is gone). Again - the sulfur will kill them. They will die off slowly and their "children" too. You will not feel them after 4-5 days and definitely after a week in bed while wearing the sulfur. Spots are slower.
I got rid of it and you can too.
I would suggest when you start this to first ask your doctor for some anti-depressants. If you go to your doctor and tell him/her that you are feeling like bugs are crawling on you at night and you have confirmed that they are not bed bugs....they will be happy to give you anti-depressants. Its important to rule that out because often Post Partum Depression and other issues can create the bug crawling feeling. Have your doctor give you a good check up to make sure it is nothing else.
Rule out depression. Then - if you can take them - the anti-depressants will do so much to help you get through this. GABA can also help with depression/anxiety so if you can't take the antidepressants try that. Please hold on - and pray. God will help you.
I hope this helps - don't give up. You will run into them from time to time and have to reapply but it won't take long.
Don't delay treatment because it will just get worse.
Blessings.
REMEMBER _THE ONE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS TO BUY: SULFER CREAM - its not expensive. If that's all you can buy - you can still get rid of them!
Thank God!!!!!
