I agree with TOM it is always best to dig them out. A lot of people spray - only for them to return.
Personally, I keep a very small patch for the bees and butterflies in a corner where I don't mind digging away at now and again. Only a small clump, next to a few other native wild plants, such as dogrose and I also leave a few buttercups and dandelions too.
ps: young leaves on dandelions are nice in salads and their roots are useful too....
