I have never had this problem before. We moved to a new house and after living here for a few months we found out we had sand fleas in our yard. This has become a huge problem because they are now in my daughter's hair. I have used lice spray, tea tree oil, and Dawn dish soap. I have also used fine tooth combs. The problem is there are still tiny eggs or baby fleas in her hair that won't come out with a comb. I don't know what to do anymore. Can someone please help?

Mayonnaise will kill the fleas and eggs. Put on and have her sleep with a shower cap. Wash in the morning. You need to pick at the nits daily using your fingernails for about 3 weeks
It appears that not too many people really know what a sand flea looks like or that it is actually labeled as "dangerous".
This is a statement from a university site (but?):
If left untreated, they can cause a lot of suffering for several months to come, before they usually disappear by themselves. Sand fleas can carry diseases and transmit viruses, so you should always see a doctor if you experience severe symptoms after getting bitten.
