What legal step or steps can be taken for a child that has had lice for 7 months?

My step daughter comes over every weekend and she always has lice except for one time. This has been going on since october of 2008 but i dint find out about it until december 2008 when i saw it in my own child's head and my own. I did all the cleaning of our heads properly 2 times in one week like it says and cleaned my house from top to bottom. That is when i was informed by my husband "her father" that she has had it quite a few times but i didn't think i needed to tell you. Here it is April and i am still doing her head the only time she came over her clean lice free is when we went to the school and notified them. The mother is extremely aware of her situation we offer to pay for every thing but she said no and the father don't want to say too much to her mother cause he is scared of never seeing his children again. And now he is telling people that it is all in my head so the last two times i did her hair i put all the bugs nits and eggs on paper towls and baged it up to show him and her mother and he just trashed it. I told him i don't want her here no more he will have them not come over for a weekend and then tell the mother to drop them off to me the next right before she goes to work. Plane and simple no one wants to hear me about this situation but it can be very harmful to children and u can get sick from the lice from them biting you. By the way the child is only five. P LEASE IF ANY ONE CAN TELL ME THE NEXT STEP I NEED TO TAKE THAT WOULD BE WONDERFUL. THANK YOU TO EVERY ONE WHO ANSWERS TO THIS MATTER. i am totallyon my own with this.

This is disgusting. Poor kid!
Before taking legal action, there is a step in this process that I am assuming is not being done.
When it comes to head lice we cannot just focus on the head alone. Everything in the child's room, in this case, I would do the WHOLE house, neeeds to be washed throughly. Bed sheets need to be washed in hot water, clothing too. If there is carpet, vacuum! Once that is taken care of, fog the whole house not just the room.
This takes time and a little bit amount money to get it under control. But it's worth it for the child and yourself and others who may come in contact with your step daughter.
Then if this doesn't pan out, I suggest reporting this to child services because it sounds like her father is being a little neglectful.
