I just found these bugs in feeders after locking my ducks up for the night. I have had a problem with an under the weather pullet, so I imagine, even though I haven't seen anything like this on my chickens, I need to treat them as well. Ugh! I just feel so sick and itchy

Will either of these products work? If so, is it safe for all ducks and chickens? Do I dust them under wings and around vent? I apologize but I am just freaking out at the moment
 
@azygous and @Wyorp Rock I found these in my ducks feeders at lock up tonight. My wyandotte, Izzy, that we've posted about today, is on the other side of the property, but I imagine I could have spread these to my chickens, although I haven't noticed any. Now I am terrified that I missed some on my chickens. Do you suggest either of these products or since it's after 8pm, my only animal supply store is PetSmart until tomorrow.
 
I don't know if I should go ahead and treat with some of this powder I have until tomorrow morning or what? Just wait and get the good stuff tomorrow morning, first thing, and then treat them and coops/house?
