It is recommended that they are treated 7-10 days apart, three treatments are needed usually.

Thanks Sharon for your reply, so if I treat them again in 10 days, then again 10 days later, my little piggeroo's should be ok?

That is the theory yes, keep a close eye after the third treatment to see that they have finally gone. A bath after all treatments are done is a good idea too to remove any itchy flaky skin and any dead mites.
