I use mineral (baby) oil.  The ears need to be cleaned daily for a week.
Take a week off.  Clean the ears a gain for another week.
 
The oil drowns the ear mites.  You take a week off incase you missed
some.  The you clean again to get rid of the ones you missed.
 
It's much better to go to the vet and a prescription treatment.  It's
quicker and less work.
