Of course you can. Lice have the abbility to jump from head to head. And because of their small body structures they can do it whenever whereever. If you are aware someone has lice and they are around you leave the area until you are aware the lice has been removedamd you should always wash your hair .

What should I do when I have been treated for lice four times but my family and best friend have them as well and now I have them again but my family will not believe me?

Head lice has been common in school children for years and even some adults can get them. Either you got the head lice from school and passed it onto your family and best friend or your best friend or another student could have passed it onto other students. Head lice will spread if not treated by the doctor and anyone you have come in contact with should see their doctor and be treated as well or the infestation of lice will continue to infect your family and best friend. Your parents should know better and believe you. Since they do not believe you have the school counselor telephone your parents so the counselor can educate them about head lice.
