I think nuking the lawn is the only way!



Once it's good and dead, am I freely able to rake it up?


Make sure you use the right product. You want Roundup (glyphosate is
the generic). I'd use it at about 4%. Depending on the temps, etc
should be dead in 10 days or so. If necessary, hit any remaining spots
again. Mow it short, rake it up. You can reseed a week after applying it.

If you use some extended herbicide, then you could be screwed for 6
months.
