Uncontrollable Bugs!! Need Advice!!

Oh, you mean eggs? Sorry I misunderstood you.

yeah. I've seen live bugs but only on the chicken eggs and the doors to the coop. The only thing seen on my birds is eggs.

I will. I treated the entire coops with elector psp about a bit ago and I was told that would do the trick so I was waiting for results but my birds never started gaining weight. I posted a pic of some eggs on my white hen. Here’s one one of my darker birds. I can’t tell if they’re eggs or just parts of the feathers. The eggs are no where near as bad as they were before.

Fortunately I've never had to deal with lice, just mites so far, so I'm probably not the best person to advise you about them. But the picture with the white hen looks like the clumps of eggs on the shaft you generally see with lice, not sure about the darker hen.
Most likely the elector psp did kill them off, but then some more eggs hatched out. That's why you have to treat multiple times to catch each new wave as they hatch, which is around every five days with lice and mites.

Alright. So should I go with permethrin spray to fight it? The clumps off eggs is what I was seeing tons of. The bugs I seen didn’t resemble lice. They were very small though. Next thing I see any I’ll try to get a picture.

Get permethrin. For a severe infestation: Clean coop out. I have liquid and dust. I mix the liquid and either dip birds (I use a 5 gal bucket) then after dipping i pour the liquid into a sprayer and spray entire coop-top to bottom all cracks crevices, OR I will mix liquid and spray birds (under wings, around vent and neck) then spray coop. After everything dries-I refill nest boxes and sprinkle with the dust.
For a minor infestation:
I dust birds under wings around Vents, clean nest box out refill and dust nest.
