Above is what I would do.

The problem is those weedkillers on sale to the general public are often
jus as effective as a chocolate tea pot.

My local council once explained they were no longer permitted to use certain
weedkillers on the streets but I was able to buy them.

I suspect public restrictions have caught up to make us just as restricted.

The potential with dandelions is that the problem doesn't originate in
your garden. You may clear the problem in your lawn and re-seed but next
season thousands of new seeds will float in from your neighbours.
