Default OH CRAP

With the outside temps at 19 degrees, i am sitting here sweating.
Got FROZEN pipes in the attic. Got the attic acess door open, heater all the way up at 80.
Had the faucet dripping at the end of the line (bath tub) .Son came in after i went to bed and took a bath and didn't leave the faucet on.
Not sure where the pipes are frozen . Not sure what else to do.
ANY TIPS TO HELP ME OUT???

Feeder was insulated , Son left water hose hooked to faucet and it froze which backed ice up into the faucet .
I'm gonna start calling that boy bobby hill. That way when he messes up i can say "dammit bobby."
