Kindly consult a doctor/dermatologist --they will decide whether external application alone is enough or tablets also are required --depending on type of infection and it's extent.--improving your personal hygiene; environmental hygiene ;treating your pet and dipping all your clothes in contact with the pet --in boiling water will also help in control and preventing recurrence.

Because you are lactating just don't take any medicine. Book proper consultation for yourself and your kid. Also this can spread to other family members also. Keep your things seperate.

You can apply candid b cream for now.
Proper application advisable- apply the cream from outside to inside in circular pattern, do not spread the cream outside the border of the lesion. Apply to all the lesions separately.
But detailed history required so kindly consult with me for proper advice and medications.
