    Scabies Treatment involves the use of medications called scabicides to eliminate the infestation of the skin by the Sarcoptes scabiei mite. Common treatments include topical creams like permethrin or oral medications such as ivermectin. These treatments are designed to kill the mites and their eggs, and often require application to the entire body, followed by thorough washing of clothing and bedding to prevent reinfestation.
