pitiful chickens

I need some advice as far as my hens go. They look terrible. No feathers on their heads, rear-ends, and backs. I don't know if they've got lice,mites or whatever? I've cleaned out the henhouse and used a bug bomb spray, then dusted real good with diatomaceous earth, about a month ago. They just look so pitiful, What should I use? They are about 2 years old, several different heavy breeds, and not laying much right now. They do get outside to scratch in a pen, and it's recently warmed up. I put more of the DE outside for them to scratch in. Any thoughts or advice is appreciated. P.S. If this is a molt, it's lasted for months!
