Dig up what you can and pick the bits that come up again, IME it dies off
very quickly. I cut a pretty big ivy down last year, couldnt get all the
roots, had a few bits come back but just picked them off and nothing has
appeared again this year.

My ivy trees has been poisoned presumably with glyphosate in the year
before I moved in. There had been some growback but a saw and lots of
levering was enough to get it to ground level - lots had died back
