Getting Rid of Elephant Ears

How can I get rid of some elephant ears? Twelve years ago when we first moved into this house I planted one bulb on each side of our front steps. Three years later I dug them up because they had gotten too full and split them into 3 plants from each bulb and transplanted them.

Three years later I dug up all 6 plants and split each of them into 3 plants each, making 18 plants! Some I gave away, some I transplanted again. I kept 6 of the 18. Three years ago I did all this again! And guess what, I have elephant ears still coming up in all of the original places where I planted or transplanted them. I just can't get them to quit coming up! I've even tried weed killer but it doesn't seem to phase them!
