The last time I had a scale infestation on a plant I really wanted to save, I used an old, soft toothbrush and soapy water to scrub every leaf and stem, top and bottom. That worked for a while. This is likely a lather, rinse, repeat situation.
The problem with a lot of scale bug species is once they attach, they form a waxy layer that tends to prevent regular insecticides, even oil based, from penetrating. You generally have to scrape them off, leaf by leaf, stem by stem.
