Lice are "ectoparasites", meaning they live on your skin. They survive by biting you and drinking your blood. They will NOT enter your bloodstream. They do NOT lay eggs under your skin. Shaving is not a bad idea, but sometimes shaving is not sufficient because some of the eggs may have gotten into your bedding (wash in HOT water and use bleach), or some may be living on the hair on your thighs, around your butt, etc. You might still need to use a topical insecticide.

AnswerShaving will not completely get rid of them. You may still need to see a doctor as pubic lies can penetrate your skin and start laying eggs, which might eventually end up in your blood stream.
Adult pubic lice are 1.1-1.8 mm in length. Pubic lice typically are found attached to hair in the pubic area but sometimes are found on coarse hair elsewhere on the body (for example, eyebrows, eyelashes, beard, mustache, chest, armpits, etc.).

Pubic lice infestations (pthiriasis) are usually spread through sexual contact. Dogs, cats, and other pets do not play a role in the transmission of human lice.

Both over-the-counter and prescription medications are available for treatment of pubic lice infestations.
You can get rid of crabs(lice) by getting some Permethrin cream, apply the cream to the affected area & wash it off after 10 minutes. The cream is available over the counter, please do not use for treatment on your eyelashes or eyebrows. But if you only have lice(crabs) in your hair, you can use Lindane shampoo, this shampoo that is applied to the affected area & thoroughly washed off after 4 minutes. It is available only by prescription, and can't be used for treatment of eyelashes or eyebrows. For infested eyelids or eyebrows an ointment is available by prescription.

No it will not; you need treatment.

Answer 2

Because pubic lice can affect other nearby hairy areas, shaving pubic hair is not sufficient to completely prevent pubic lice. If you have had intimate contact with someone with pubic lice, you should be treated.

Yes, head lice shampoo is the same medication used to get rid of pubic lice.

Waxing may get rid of many pubic lice, but some people are also affected in nearby hairy areas. Consider using insecticidal shampoo.
