The [Intellect Devourer][1]'s Body Thief action specifies:

> A *protection from evil and good* spell cast on the body drives the intellect devourer out.

However, the [*protection from evil and good*][2] spell can only target a creature, not the body in particular. How do I reconcile this difference? Can I assume that targeting a creature equates to targeting its body?
