Typhus is caused by bacteria and is treated with antibiotics such as doxycycline or tetracycline.

Keeping sanitary conditions and keeping yourself (and your home) free of pests will go a long way to preventing the disease. Typhus used to be known as "Camp Fever" for it broke out often in military encampments where conditions were very cramped and unsanitary. *** You must go to a hospital and then let the doctors do all the work.
