TSWV pyrethrin suggestions

I'm having major problems for the third year in a row. First year, the TSWV hit midseason, last year about a month in and this year it has hit this week just as the plants are setting fruit and about 2' high. This year I moved my tomato bed away from my roses, but there is no place left to move.

What insecticides are safe? Are all the pyrethrin products OK? Would I need to spray everything flowering on my two acre property, or just the veggie beds? My two acres are heavily landscaped and it would be beyond practicle to spray everything every week.

Short of not growing any tomatoes, I'm at a loss.

My only thought outside of you guys is to drive an hour to a farmers market and ask growers there with large farms what they are doing.

Thanks for any advice.
