I agree the older cans were much better, it would literally melt the ticks and leave little greasy spots. It also had the states listed where it was legal to use.
I don't know for sure, but I think Repel bought out whomever owned it before.
Peramone does not affect chiggers.
I'll have to try the mix from TSC.

Permanone has always worked great for me over the years. I hate to hear things may have changed. Im about out as well, time to look for replacement.

Peramone does not affect chiggers.
Permanone (peramethrine--the active ingredient) is an insecticide. It kills nearly every insect that comes in contact with it.
Spray all the outer clothes surfaces with peramethrine and then let them dry before wearing them. Combine that with some high percentage DEET for exposed skin (face and hands) and no more chigger or tick problems. Although a shower and scrubbing down as soon as you get home couldn't hurt.
And by the way, Wally World has stopped selling Permanone. 
If you can find it, "Duranon" is the same thing as Permanone.

I wear snake boots, stuff my pant leggings into them and this forces the ticks to crawl up 2/3 of my body before they can find flesh......
Works wonders and i dont feel greased up...
Oh, and i tuck my shirt tail in to prevent them going under it.
