I started buying permethrin when I worked in a sporting goods store. Now I get it at Wally World. It's labeled REPEL Permanone.
It's also marketed under the name Sawyer's.

Question on the Thermacell - my understanding is that it really only works best when you're stationary - is that correct? I've been considering one for shooting sporting clays, but if I'm moving every few minutes, will it still be effective?
The Thermacell creates a 15ft force field around you, but if you're moving it's a little less effective unless you are walking or hiking with a tailwind and if it's windy and you're stationary it'll just blow the repellent down wind. But bugs won't be a problem either.

You should always have a DEET backup plan regardless of what you use.
