Water well and cover with black plastic. Let sun bake it for several weeks. Not only will it kill weeds, it will sterilize soil. I bought some irises which had a fungus and this was the only way to stop the spread. Don't use vinegar or salt because it will stay in the soil. You will end up with acidic soil from the vinegar and dead soil in which nothing will grow with salt. I even bypass the water softener when I water the garden. It makes a tremendous difference!!!
Try multiple layers of plain cardboard - like the shipping box. Weight it down.
