not good to use any product containing Deet on a young child.Strongly suggest you look into it further & make up your own mind.Although sometimes it's a toss up of the lesser of 2 evils - exposure to dengue fever or possible side effects of a product containing Deet.
I am currently on holidays in Darwin & have done a recent tour with many veterans of WW11 - many of them were paranoid about some of the places we visited re Dengue fever & always warned us so called
"young ones" to beware.Seems in their day it was something that was drummed into them by the military if they served time up here.
I am not from WA but I expect most camping stores would sell Bushmans.
