battled these fucks for years. finally got rid of them but it took a systemic. these bugs are not hard to control with sprays just very hard to eliminate and there population always seem to explode at the wrong times. if you have a decent sized grow it is a real pain to spray the leaves properly. i would suggest a systemic and just finish them off if you are perpetual.
I never had any fungus problems but i could imagine it being a possibility if your room or plants are already prone to it. these pests really seem to love to explode in population in mid to late flower and will leave a bunch of shit on the leaves.
I used bayer complete and bayer fruit and veg mixed in with my regular nutes 20-40 ml per gallon.

there on day 4 of flowering i hit them with spinosad 3 days ago but there's still lots of them.
you can use hotshot kitchen bug killer
its in the blue can at lowes, for $4 it does em in for sure.
same stuff(pyrethrin) as dr doom mite spray but at half the concentration and 1/3 the price and does the job.
i shake the branches a bit to get em flying and at the same time spraying the hot shot.
if they're inside you can that and you can spray hi in the room, 30 seconds for every
100sqft of area and close the door, no exaust fans running for 45-60 minutes.
this is good to do as a weekly maintenence to keep the bugs in check.
I use a small closet for one of my veg spots, 3'x5' and had white flys getting established so i did a quick room spray and closed the door, did this every few days a weekand a half or so til they were no more white flys
but I started seeing dead palmetto bugs on the floor?
for those that live in florida palmetto bugs are just big ass roaches, but every few days I would see one and wondered what was killing em then it hit me it was the 10 second spurt of hot shot and the closed door that made a nice gas chamber.
hot shot is effective and not overly toxic , cheap and its easy to access
