Specific Aim: In pediatric patients presenting with a MRSA skin or soft tissue infection, compare the effectiveness of decolonization measures performed by an entire household in comparison to measures directed at the index patient alone. The investigators will conduct a randomized, controlled trial to test the hypothesis that decolonization measures performed by the entire household, specifically application of intranasal mupirocin ointment and bathing with chlorhexidine liquid soap, in addition to education and basic hygiene interventions, will be twice as effective in eradicating CA-MRSA carriage in the index patient than if the measures are performed only by the index patient.
