Scabies exposure!!!

Help!!! A friend of mine came to visit for my birthday at stayed in my bed with me for 4 nights. The day after she got back home she went to the Dr and found out she had scabies the whole time. I tried to get permethrin to preemptively treat my 18 month old, husband, and self, but they won’t prescribe it until we literally have bugs falling out of our skin???!!!?!?!?! I’m deep cleaning everything especially fabrics right now and dousing shit in white vinegar and tea tree and hot water but what more can I do???? Do wooden toys need disinfected too?? How do I effectively attempt to prevent this from becoming an issue?? I’m supposed to have another friend come hang out tomorrow for a girls night, but is it safe to have her over? I’ve never had scabies or witnessed it so pls help!

Edit: I already called my friend and told her we needed to reschedule no worries there
