The ick is deeply enkisted in the skin and even a fresh water dip won't kill it. It is only susceptible when in free swimming. so a fresh water dip won't kill ich from your fish, it only appear to be.

I have tried freshwater dips in past and not had any great results. I am not saying its the way, but as a last resort maybe.....
