Could be wrong, but I think Benefect Decon 30 works on scabies. Call them to confirm . I’d go in with a tyvec suit, shoe guards , 2 gallon pump sprayer, spray EVERYTHING, including carpet, walls, furniture, beds, etc. then start at the beginning with decon 30 as my prespray, spray in, wand out, dump the tyvec suit on site into a garbage bag, and spray any and all equipment with decon 30 on site when done.
Get back to the shop, do a full hot wash/ decontamination of the van and all equipment.
Charge accordingly, but honestly? It’s a HARD PASS for me personally.
They need to buy a gallon or 2 of tea tree oil shampoo, and a couple gallons of bleach, and go to town on cleaning the house, and using the shampoo to bathe for a couple weeks…

Scabies are transferred through prolonged skin to skin contact. Even shaking hands rarely leads to transfer of the mites. Sexual contact is the primary means of contamination. I don’t think a space suit is necessary unless you’re there to make love to the floor coverings.
But you’re the space scientist who just happens to clean carpet for a living. I bow to your expertise.

BTW, oh REALLY???
I’m pretty sure CDC has something different to say on the matter…
Do some research Marty.
Space scientist? A hell of a lot closer than you think.
Go ahead and do a regular ‘clean’ on a place that has a major Scabies outbreak…
Report back your findings.
Space scientist? I think you are more akin to a space cadet…

Or you could just say no thanks...
I turned down a Poop-Mattress yesterday. I referred it to the new guy in town. Hope he gets the job. I'm pulling for him.

I don't blame him. You should just buy another one.

He’s already paid MUCH MORE than I would pay someone else’s son.

Why are you trying to be subtle?
Has your newfound faith emasculated you?

For once I agree with hog boy. It’s a whole lot like treating lice. A little different protocol but similar. As it indicates online, the severity of itching is caused from allergic reactions or low immune systems. I would do as stated except for the excess equipment.
