    You'll want to treat the enclosure (not the snake) with Provent-A-Mite that you can buy online at either of these two sites:

    How about buying PAM (Provent A Mite) and just treating her enclosure, chances are if you trade her back to the store she came from the next one you will have will also likely have mites.

    Again get some PAM it will take care of the problem, this is the only product that will eradicate all stages of development of mites everything else you might do will only lead to re-infestation as you might kill the adults but not the eggs.
