Picked up scabies and after trying one other product, I tried Benzyl (had to apply on two separate outbreaks). Three months later, I can say that this product definitely works however there are several caveats that you need to be aware of.
You have to completely cover you body (except for head and neck) and apply generously.
Get rid of the clothes u were wearing and wash at reasonably high temperature (can last 3 days on clothes).
Wash your sheets and pillow cases.
If there are several family members with an outbreak, apply the product to all family members in the same timeframe.
Reapply to hands after washing.
Very important that you follow the above and read the instructions on the bottle, otherwise, like me, you may get re-infected. Not sure how it happened but had to be one of the above that I did not do first time around.
Product smells a bit so don't organize any hot dates on days of application.
It can be a bit harsh on the skin especially if you apply to the neck area inadvertently so be careful when applying especially to sensitive areas.
For me, the itching lasted almost a month after application even though the scabies were gone.
Good luck, horrible little mites, not you, the scabies :).
