Long story short...

Little girl across the road got school sores that has now developed into a Staph infection. She was admitted to Hosp yesterday. She is pretty bad it Looks terrible..

Anyways my DD got a little sore on her tummy 2 days ago. I took her to the chemist yest who said it wasn't a school sore but to keep an eye on it. It looked a little worse today with a couple more suspicious sores around it so off to the Drs and she now has a staph infection too..

I know it won't get as bad as the neighbours girl as we have had it diagnosed very early (girl across the road has it all over her body)

Curious how else to stop it spreading to my boys and us.. We have antiseptic bath wash for DD and will also do the boys with it too. plus dettol hand soap.. Have started wiping all the surfaces in the house with disinfectant.. Or is that going over board???

I was told I don't need to wash Dd's clothes and bedding in anything different just hot water.. Is that right?

Anyways has anyone else had this and how have you been told to treat it at home?
