In addition to or in lieu of the criminal penalties and administrative sanctions provided for in the law and these rules, the board may issue an order to any person engaged in any activity, conduct or practice constituting a violation of any provision of these rules to cease and desist from such activity, conduct or practice. Such order shall be issued in the name of the state and under the official seal of the board.
B. If the person directed by cease and desist order does not cease and desist the prohibited activity, conduct, or practice within two days of service of such order by certified mail, the board may seek a writ of injunction in any court of competent jurisdiction and proper venue enjoining such person from engaging in the activity, conduct or practice, and recovery of all related costs of the type described in §139

Upon proper showing of the board that such person or firm has engaged in any activity, conduct or practice prohibited by this Chapter, the court shall issue a temporary restraining order restraining the person or firm from engaging in the unlawful activity, conduct or practice, pending hearing on a preliminary injunction. A permanent injunction shall issue after hearing commanding the cessation of the unlawful activity, conduct or practice complained of, all without the necessity of the board having to give bond as usually required in such cases.
