no Pet's cant get lice.
It depends on what your pet is - if it is a sheep, goat or bird than yes it can get lice.
Human head lice cannot survive on pets. They need human blood to survive and live.
Lice are extremely fragile in the environment (dehydrate VERY quickly) and cannot live longer than 24 hours without a human blood meal (they don't live on pets). Focusing on items worn in the last 24 hours, bedsheets, combs/brushes will cover your possible exposure from the environment. Experts believe lice transmission from inanimate objects to be less than 2%. So cover your bases but don't fine tooth comb the carpet!
