You get rid of gofers by sending them on an errand. As for those pesky wabbits, I think you can buy some gopher gas. On the other hand, you could change your mindset and think they're cute when they peep at you out of their little holes. Put some gopher food around their holes, maybe soon you can get them to take food from your hand. Sort of like the movie "Dances With Gophers" starring Kevin Rodent. Who knows, maybe some day you and your new gopher buddies can share a good laugh over this little misunderstanding.

Gophers, also known as woodchucks live in the ground and they usually have at least two entrance/exit holes. Go to your local farm/garden supply center and see if you can purchase gopher exterminators that resemble a huge firecracker with a fuse. Soak a lot of newspapers in water and locate the entrance/exit holes. Cover each hole except the main hole entrance with the sopping wet newspapers and weight down with a substantial rock. Tie one of the exterminators to a long stick. Ignite the fuse and as soon as it starts generating smoke ease it gently down the hole until it cannot go further. Seal up this hole with more wet newspapers and a rock. The smoke generated is carbon monoxide and will kill the gophers painlessly in their burrows. It really works assuming you can find those exterminator sticks.

Buy a .22 and learn to shoot. I'm surprised your method didn't work.........In the words of Bill Murray.........."How about a nice cool drink varmint....scum, slim, menace to the golfing industry. You're a disgrace, and you're a varmint. You're one of the lowest members of the food chain, and you'll probably be replaced by the rat."

this will kill them, but put a stick of chewing gum in there holes they will chew it and they cant digest it. it is cruel, but it works. otherwise try to kill the grubs.
