My wife's research revealed an important fact, lice cannot survive for more than 48 hours without a human host. So we let DD sleep on a cot in a different room for two days to clear her bed.
As for DD (and DW, I get a free pass thanks to baldness) she makes some kind of solution with tea tree oil and uses a comb. The lice can't stand tea tree oil and abandon ship.
My wife says mayonnaise didn't work, but I've heard testimonial from other parents this is very effective. Mayo plus a shower cap plus keep it in overnight suffocates the little varmints to death.
