A nurse working for a family practice physician sees a 48-year-old client who reports severe itching of his hands and under arms. Examination reveals redness and irritation in the webbing of both hands and axillae.
 
  The physician orders permethrin (Elimite) cream, a scabicide. The nurse recognizes treatment has been effective by which of the following statements?
  A. I can't believe I have lice. I wonder if I got it from my niece.
  B. So applying this cream between my fingers and arm pits will kill the mites and eggs.
  C. I will need to use a fine-tooth comb to go through my hair daily for the next full week.
  D. Scabies only live on top of the skin, so the itch should disappear within a day.
