Will Seven Dust make eggs unedible?

I'm sorry if some of you are reading this in other threads, but I am REALLY looking for an answer.
I know this is an old thread, but am hoping that someone can provide a link to anything scientific that says it's really safe to eat the eggs after treating birds themselves and/or their housing and premises with carbaryl, the active ingredient in Sevin Dust, and permethrin. I am finding conflicting information, and one abstract I found said that toxins can be found in the egg yolk for up to 56 days after treatment.
We treated just the coop and run without the birds being there, since they didn't have any mites on them, but have been discarding the eggs for 4 days now, which is EXTREMELY hard for me to do, as I'm very frugal and I absolutely HATE waste of any kind.

I forgot to add that you can't wash the residue off the egg when it's present inside the yolk. Anybody care to comment?
 
Yikes.....somehow I managed to post my question twice, but can't find how to delete it, only edit. Sorry about that.....
