Have you tried any over the counter lice shampoos they sell at Walmart or Target? One name I can think of is Rid. I know there are other brands as well. A doctor can prescribe other brands if you have an especially resistant strain. Be sure to follow the directions too about cleaning bedding, floors and hats as well to remove eggs (nits). Here is a link with more info too:

It does sound like you have head lice and even if you are shaving you're head, you are picking them up from somewhere. I would agree with the previous poster as far as the correct way to wash bedding, towels, clothing you've worn and haven't washed since the last time, etc. I would also consider going to the doctor if this continues. You may need to use something stronger than what you're using.
