Here in Seattle, there are few times the weeds aren't growing.

Don't know why the OP is having problems killing broadleaf weeds.
I've used the same product, WeedBGone for years and it's been
very effective when mixed and used as directed. *It kills most
weeds in one application. *Some require a second application
about 2 weeks later. *I apply it with a tank sprayer.

Clover is harder to kill, but again I've used the Ortho Clover/Oxalis
killer and it's worked well.

I used Bayer Advanced All in One this year. Wow. Took out everything but the
grass. I'll swear by it, for everything including white and hop clovers, wild
strawberry, everything. *=)

Do cemetery workers prefer the graveyard shift?

I'll have to try that. *I thought I was the only one with wild
strawberries growing in my lawn. *

You are. Mine are toast. (on the first app, btw). *=)

Last week I screwed up and only mixed the Ortho
WeedBGone Max at 1/3 the strength. *I didn't think it would do much of
anything. *I was quite surprised. *It whacked just about all the
regular
broadleaf weeds and so far has had a severe impact on the crabgrass
too. *It affected the strawberries and clover to some extent, but
probably
not enough to kill them.

Grab the blue bottle, dood. I only have it, and a bottle of ready-to-spray
Spectracide non-selective (for a small strip of landscape rocks in a bed by the
street) in my arsenal this year. That's all I've used, and all I've needed to
use this year. The ONLY thing that the Bayer doesn't work on, is nutsedge.. It
hasn't been much of a problem in my yard this year, and I just pull it from
beds. I'm glad, too. Sedgehammer's too frigin expensive to keep on hand. *=)

I just applied the last 2 grams of Permit from a small amount that a
friend had given me years ago. Those few grams went a long way.
So just started looking for nutsedge treatment and was surprised how
expensive it is. It's like $10 or $20 a gram. Seems it's priced
just
like the stuff the guys on the street corners sell. I think I'll need
a second
application because I let it get out of control last year.
