I also suffered with Creeping Charlie! At one point, two thirds of my lawn was taken over. I tried everything under the sun. I finally tried Spectracide Weed and Feed. I mixed a much stronger solution than the instructions said. Used a handheld sprayer and really wet the "lawn" down with no rain scheduled for the next few days. Killed the Charlie and he lawn came back stronger than ever. I still get some Charlie coming back every so often, so I pull out what I can and spot spray it along with other weeds as general maintenance.
Takes 2 years of treatment to get rid of it. i think Bayer or Scott's have a 800 number to call and get the best informatio.
Is it in your grass or garden? If in your garden I would hand dig it out to about six inches outside the edge of the garden, that way you will only have to get it from the edge and may be able to get the suckers before they take root in the garden. For lawn a weed and feed product or a weed killer spray of your choice that is safe to use on grass without killing it.
