Spraying a mattress with bug spray is not an effective treatment for scabies, as scabies is caused by microscopic mites that burrow into the skin, not pests residing on surfaces. Instead, the appropriate approach is to treat the affected person with prescribed topical scabicides, such as permethrin cream or ivermectin. Additionally, it's important to wash bedding and clothing in hot water and dry them on high heat to eliminate any mites or eggs. Always consult a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and treatment.
