Pesticides for Thrips

Clerk says that Orthene, Diazinon, malathion and several shave been band in Nebraska.  What should I get instead?
The clerk suggested these new products, but I wanted to get everyones opinion first.

Hi-yield with Dicofol
Kill-A-Bug with Permethrin
Sevin with Carbary
Ortho with Fenbutain-oxide

I'm lost can anyone help?
 
I've used Shultz 3 in 1 fungicide, insecticide and mitacide with good results.  Several of my new sundew seedlings weren't producing any dew and were turning brown.  Well, I left them there for several days to see if it was because of lighting or humidity.  After a few days though the seedling was baisically dead and I used a toothpick to tap it to inspect the plant.  To my suprise there were some white little bugs that were feeding off of my plant!  Well I sprayed it with the 3 in 1 product and they started hoping everywhere like crazy, now I mean like a foot!  The very next day I checked on the seedlings and most of them now had dew on their leaves again.
The main ingredient in the product is diluted Neem oil.  
I have a question though, since it's organic wouldn't it eventually break down and turn into mold?
