Legal Question in Family Law in Massachusetts

Do I have to let a DCF investigator into my home? I Had a form 51a filed against me by my daughter"s therapist stating she didn't feel safe in the home. This came after a heated argument about her taking the car without asking and me calling her friends looking for her.
