rug doctor and antibacterial cleaner. You can buy it at the Kirby dealer and sometimes they have it in the rug doctor area. If they don't, get some ani bacterial spray/cleaner for fabric and spray the hell out of it. I don't know that much about scabies but if you google it, Im sure they will have the answer to your question somewhere. Hope you can get this under control. Good luck

I found this on a site. But it doesn't say how to get them out of the furniture or carpet......

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Can scabies be treated?
Yes. Several lotions are available to treat scabies. Always follow the directions provided by your physician or the directions on the package insert. Apply lotion to a clean body from the neck down to the toes and left overnight (8 hours). After 8 hours, take a bath or shower to wash off the lotion. Put on clean clothes. All clothes, bedding, and towels used by the infested person 2 days before treatment should be washed in hot water; dry in a hot dryer. A second treatment of the body with the same lotion may be necessary 7-10 days later. Pregnant women and children are often treated with milder scabies medications.
