The terminal can help you here. Open terminal and change to the
directory you want to delete all .ds_store files from (including
subdirectories). One way to do this is to type "cd " and then drag
the folder from the finder. Type "return" and that will change the
active directory of the terminal.
Type this:
find ./ -name ".DS_Store" -exec rm -f {} \;
This should get rid of all the files. I use it all of the time.
