Svr head/ear itch with bad neck rash. did two lice trtmnt and nothing came off. son had lice. in a lot of pain. constant itch/scratch till bleed.

No rash with lice: Lice don't cause a rash. You may have a reaction to the anti-lice treatment, or may have something like scalp fungus or something totally different. Best bet is to get examined by a healthcare provider.
