PAM is always my first recommendation. However, if you can't get it, then Equate would be my second choice, based on what I've read from numerous people that I trust. I'd shoot a PM to muddoc or wilomn (just two who have posted here most recently about using Equate...not singling them out above anyone else) and ask them precisely which product to buy and how they use it.

In the meantime...to help ease your snake's discomfort immediately...make a bath for your snake (with tepid water that feels neither warm nor cold to your touch)...put in one or two drops of dish detergent...and let the animal soak in that for a little while. The soap keeps airbubbles from forming around the mites and they'll drown much faster. This won't prevent their return, but it will kill off the live ones that are bugging the snake right now.
