I had scabies about two weeks ago and did the treatment. Yesterday I wore a shirt that I put on when I had scabies and did not know it. I decided against wearing it then and put back into closet. I only had it on only a minute when I decided not to wear it. Now I am itching so is it possible that I reinfected myself.

Saesalon,
Could just be your mind playing tricks on you but you may also have reinfected yourself.
Remember that the itching can also last for about 3 weeks after the mites are dead so that may be what is effectingyou as well.
If you want to be safe, try getting some Kleen-Free and using 4 ounces in your wash and wash everything that you have to be safe. Use very hot water with this and dry everything onhigh temp as well – no added detergent.
Also you can use this in your bath with about 4 ounces of Kleen-Free and it should help with the itching.
it is some sort of enzyme product that eats away at the skeleton of the mite and cxontrols it that way apparently.
Good luck. You are almost free of the bugs.
