[RC] Lice, mange and other icky stuff - Mike & Laurie Hilyard

My son's mare has been itching around her poll and neck, and she's lost some hair - quite a bit under her mane.  The skin is dry and unbroken, and the itch is mild, not something she's doing for hours.  I just used some delouse powder on her.  I live in the great white north, so there isn't much sun, but she is free to wander in and out of her barn into a three acre pasture.  Is this lice?  Anybody have any experience with these symptoms?  My horse and my husband's look fine.
